By the time I finish this post it will be Thanksgiving Day. I am so thankful for alot of things in my life; Jesus Christ, Family, Love, Health, Faith, ,a Great Job,Great Friends, but this Thanksgiving there is one thing in particular that I am most thankful for. This time last year we were preparing for the birth of our Son. Now one year later our lives have completley changed. This year I am Thankful to God for the opportunity to get pregnant and giving me 8 1/2 months with my Son. I am thankful for all of the kicks, punches, heartburn, nausea,weight gain and everything that had to go along with my pregnancy that so many of us take for granted. I am thankful for the Doctors and nurses who were so wonderful to us at the hospital during our delivery. I am thankful for ALL of our MANY FRIENDS and FAMILY who have been there for us through this time. Every call, card, letter, email, prayer, truely has helped me get this far. I could not have made it this far without you all and I can not say thank you enough!
Everyone says the Holidays will be difficult and I felt like I was on the road to healing, up until a few days ago. I felt the "wound" that has taken such a large part out of my heart was starting to heal. Please pray God will grant us strength and comfort in this time as our Sons absence will be much more evident to us during this time.
1 Thessalonians 5:8 says "give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus". all circumstances? No, I am not thankful that Carter died , but I am THANKFUL to know that God has a plan and a purpose for this and I know that he will continue to walk beside me each and every day and grant me Peace in knowing that he is in control of my life.
Happy Thanksgiving to Everyone!
