Precious Memories...2009
2009 was a year I will never forget, and a year that is hard to leave behind. I was pregnant for most of the year. We found out we were pregnant with Little Danny in February. In 2009 I was as happy as I have ever been, finding out we were finally going to be parents! And in that same year as sad and broken hearted as I have ever been, finding out the hurt and pain of losing your only child.
I have learned alot this past year. I've learned to not take life for granted and to cherish every moment of it. I've learned not to let a day go by without letting the one's you love know how much they mean to you. Those of you who have children, I hope that you know what you have is so very precious. Love your children...hug them, kiss them, hold them. That is something that I only had a short opportunity to do with Little Danny...and everyday I wish that I had more time to do . You have that right now, so don't let that time slip by, because life is too short and it is over before we know it.
I've also learned that even when we don't understand, we can find comfort in Jesus. I have learned first hand that no matter how dark things may seem, when you call on Him, He will always be right there for you, He knows your hurt and He cares for you. He has been my source of strength through it all.
With another year, it brings new hopes and dreams. I pray that God continues to heal my broken heart, and that He continues to give me strength from day to day. I pray that God blesses us with another child. I pray that the Lord blesses me with a healthy pregnancy and a healthy child. Most of all I pray that I will have a closer walk with the Lord and that my life will be an example to others. And above all of my hopes, dreams, and desires, I want His will to be done in my life.
