What a heartbreaking moment. But I am so comforted to see the peace on everyone's face and in your words. I hope for healing and peace for all of you. {hugs}
I am so sorry for the loss! I cant imagine how they are feeling. I will keep them in my thoughts and prayers! You have one special sister to be blessed to have a perfect son who only needed to come to this earth and gain his body and then return home to do another type of job. It is pretty amazing! What a blessing it is at these times to have the gospel and the knowledge of eternal families! Love you!
I saw this poem on another blog and thought your sister. Maybe you could pass this on to here and bring comfort.
WHAT MAKES A MOTHER?
I thought of you and closed my eyes and prayed to God today I asked "What makes a Mother?"
And I know I heard Him say. "A Mother has a baby" This we know is true. "But God can you be a Mother, when your baby's not with you?"
"Yes, you can," He replied With confidence in His voice
"I give many women babies, but when they leave is not their choice. Some I send for a lifetime, And others for the day. And some I send to feel your womb, But there's no need to stay."
"I just don't understand this God I want my baby to be here."
He took a deep, and then I saw the tear.
"I wish I could show you, What your child is doing today. If you could see your child's smile, With all the other and say...
'We go to Earth to learn our lessons, Of love and life and fear.
My Mommy loved me oh so much, I got to come straight here.
I feel so lucky to have a Mom, Who had so much love for me. I learned my lessons very quickly, My Mommy set me free. I miss my Mommy oh so much, But I visit her every day. When she goes to sleep, On her pillow's where I lay I stroke her hair. Mommy don't be sad, I'm here.'
"So you see my dear sweet ones, your children are okay. Your babies are born here in My home, And this is where they'll stay.
They'll wait for you with Me, Until your lesson's through.
And on the day that you come home they'll be at the gates for you.
So now you see what makes a Mother, It's the feeling in your heart - it's the love you had so much of Right from the very start.
Such a sweet post. Which of your siblings had little baby Will...sorry I dont know which one lives in VA? You are really sweet to do a post like this. I will keep you all in my prayers.
I used to love to blog and I recently realized that I really miss blogging! I hadn't updated my profile since 2009 so here goes an update!! My sweet husband Bobby and I have been married for 12 years. Its the best decision I've ever made with many wonderful bumps along the way! :) We have 3 busy kids. We adopted our 2nd son which was another one of the best and hardest things I've ever done. We love to go boating, camping, hiking, and skiing as a family. I love to read, exercise, laugh, play the piano, listen to music and play on a local tennis team. I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. I love it! It is my faith in Jesus Christ that has gotten me through all of life's most difficult moments! We are not a perfect bunch but we work hard, try hard and have a lot of fun along the way! Thanks for visiting my blog!
