Remember when your mom told you not to rush growing up? If only I knew then how great being a kid was. I was reminded of the simplicity that seems to disappear with age at dinner tonight...
"Can clothes walk without people in them?" Isaiah asked us with wide eyes.
If only life was still so simple. I had spent much of the afternoon looking at pro's & con's of c-sections with anencephalic babies and praying for God to open and shut doors to protect my heart and give me peace. I'd love it if the only concern I had now was about how clothes make their way around... although, I have wondered if there was a way to get them to put themselves away!
On August 4, 2010 our hearts broke as we heard the Dr. say "she has anencephaly...these babies don't live" at our 19 wk ultrasound. The Dr. is wrong. Our precious daughter's time on earth may be short, but she will live for eternity with our Lord in heaven. During the few months we have her here with us, we intend to make the most of every second of it. Our hope is that she will leave behind more than a few short memories, but that she will leave a legacy of what it means to hope in Jesus.
Yes Isaiah, some clothes can walk without people in them..............
