a must read...

So I ran across this woman's blog on another friends blog...I had no idea what I was about to read! I have never before read such a raw, grief filled, faithful, and honest approach to dealing with the death of a child! I recommend reading her words when you are ready to spend almost an hour. Be prepared to cry, marvel at her strength, cry, and hopefully desire that you would respond with the same faith! I suggest reading her posts in chronological order starting with May's post "Backyard Developments" and then jumping and reading all of June and July in order! (I know...like I said it could take some time!) Remember that things are posted with the most recent first so you will need to work from the bottom up! Her words have impacted me forever! I pray that I will never have to go through her kind of pain, but I hope that I can develop her same strong faith!

this lady also lost a child and she has incredible faith, there's a link on my blog called "inspiring faith" that's her. I love her.

She is amazing. I have learned so much more appreciation for my kids from her. What an inspiration!

Wow, I am still in awe by the story. It's every mothers worst fear. What strength to even write it all out. I am sure it's a way for her to vent and mourn her loss. But she amazes me. I love the part about doing something everyday that is physical, spiritual, mental and social.
