...today we remember ::Halle Jane::

May 24, 2010


Today doesn't come without tears. 1 year ago today i gave birth to our little Halle Jane. I find myself at a loss for words sometimes. my is struggle not only for words to describe my feelings - but rather for the feelings with which to attach my words. I gave birth to a baby that didn't survive -but rather went strait to heaven and met her maker. As i reflect on Halle's very short life, i have to remember that each life has it's own purpose - beyond that that we can even comprehend - and each day was written before one of them came to be. My heart has learned how to live with the loss. My mind has learned how to process the pain of the reality that i should have 2 living daughters. And yet....aside from the pain...i re-read this post....and i still know that God is still Good.


this day brings tears....lots of tears...with an underling gimmer of a sense of hope as i hold our little Sienna Faith in my arms. Remembering...that she too is Gods.


For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place, when I was woven together in the depths of the earth. Your eyes saw my unformed body; all the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be. -Psalm 139: 13-16

  4. I know how strange this day must be for you... I remember having one similar. It was finally at that one=year point that I could separate Katie/Morgen a bit... carrying one daughter when I could be holding the other. And then Katie's 1st birthday, knowing it would have been Morgen's 2nd... But God is good and I am so excited for the truths and beauty you will find and are finding on this journey! Now Katie is almost 4, Morgen would be almost 5 - I spent some God-time with her this week and it was beautiful and still heart-breaking. But God is STILL good... love you!
