This blog and eventual book is all to God's glory. It is to share with others our journey through trials of life and death and how God is in the midst holding you and helping you through it. I am not sure what exactly this will turn out to be but definitely God will guide it.
This year has been one filled with much craziness.
Have you ever wondered how you would handle life and death crises? Have you ever watched others hold it so together during such things and wonder "I don't know if I could be so strong and so faithful." Well our family got a chance to go through something just like that.
I never in a million years thought I would be as strong yet as vulnerable a mom as I have been challenged this year to be. You would do anything for your children literally and sometimes you do just that anything. From turning them over to strangers to literally handing their life back to God.
When Robert was conceived we had gone through 6 miscarriages and through no idea as to why we kept losing babies we found out we were pregnant for the 7th time. When you go through that you promise God anything. But, because of my belief in God and the many gifts He has given me when Robert was born (total miracle in all honesty) I gave him back to God the first time I held him. My prayer that day was a prayer of thanksgiving for such a beautiful little boy, one I didn't deserve, one I loved beyond all else (other then God of course), one that like Abraham I gave back to God.
I had spent 6 years watching this little boy smile a smile no one would resist. Watched him grow and make friends, rocked him when he was sick or cried and just plain enjoyed every moment with him.
On January 1, 2013 our life came to a crashing halt. Here is our story.
