a little thought on my journey of grief and finding joy

//sometimes in our life we are struck with heavy burdens and tragedies that seem impossible to live again. With Christmas approaching I know a lot of people are hurting. I too have hurt so bad during the holidays I didn't even want to face them. If you are hurting today please hear me. I understand your pain. When I lost my child and her first Christmas {or any other firsts approached} it took everything I had and more to face it without crumbling. We focus on praying and hoping are healing comes. Healing doesn't entirely go away after losing someone but you can find … [Read more...]

Life after Loss

May 17, 2015 · Leave a Comment

Heartache changes you. It challenges you to find yourself after you experience a heartache that seems like living again is far beyond our reach. It teaches you how fragile life really is. It changes your perspective. After losing Payton, I struggled with everything that comes along with heartache. Each of us struggle differently but the pain is all the same. A pain unimaginable. A pain that shakes you to the core. Losing our baby was something I never imagines I would experience. Rushing to the hospital in labor when our baby was due was full of excitement. When … [Read more...]

Life after Loss

This week my heart is has been heavy yet joyful. I have been sad yet so happy full of laughter in my soul. I have shed tears yet smiled so big. I have remembered and I have grieved. I am still mourning and I am still healing. As my children are getting ready to go back to school and start another year in their little childhood in this journey of life, I am always reminded of the possibility I once had to go through the all the little stages of life with our first child. She would have been eight years old and starting 3rd grade. It's hard to believe yet sometimes it's … [Read more...]

Dear Payton

March 16, 2014 · 1 Comment

Payton, today we would have celebrated your 8th birthday. I know you would be running around with all of us acting crazy and dancing in the living room. Your beautiful auburn hair all over the place like your sister's and mine. We would have had a party celebrating you! But no party here I could give you could compare to the party God is giving you.You are with the creator of the Heavens and the Earth doing his mighty work. I have been told that you are my angel who watches down on me. Maybe so, but I can't find scripture that backs that up, so I believe that you have … [Read more...]

Bittersweet Seasons

February 16, 2014 · 1 Comment

Another season of life has passed and although this season was a long time ago, I never really accepted it until recently. It has finally become so real that we won't ever be welcoming new baby of our own that I have carried to home. I knew this when we scheduled my c-section for our little Miss C almost six years ago. But the reality and the emotions are two entirely separate things. I think the emotional side of it was much harder to deal with especially when you are a young woman and you get baby fever. My first child/daughter was stillborn during delivery full … [Read more...]

Facing Tough Encounters

Facing Tough Encounters

Since the beginning of our homeschooling journey I have been at peace with decisions that I made to provide an environment for my children that embraced their over all well-being. An environment of interest, creativity, strengths and weaknesses, love, joy, kindness, and yes even disagreements with brother but healthy disagreements. Healthy disagreements where we can […]

Homeschool

It has been raining for like the millionth day but the rain has forced us to stay home more than usual and allow us to really focus on some things around the house. So even though I miss the sunshine I am thankful for the rain too. We started a whole new adventure since the […]

Cold Winter Days and Warm Soup

Cold Winter Days and Warm Soup

Goodness this holiday season flew by but I held tight to every moment with my family. We have had some cold winter days this last week in Texas and that could only mean warm snuggles in cozy sherpa blankets and homemade chicken noodle soup. One of my favorite memories with my grandmother was cooking in […]
