What About the Due Date?

Hi Everyone!! Sorry it has been awhile since I posted a blog! I know you all know that sometimes you just need a little break!

This week finds me learning how to get through a big day. Our little daughters due date. It has been tough... all our hopes and dreams were going to come true this week. Going into the guest room to find her stuff that we still have. Imagining giving birth and it being a joyful experience... I am sure you have had thoughts like this if you have gotten to a due date that didn't happen.

These are just some of the things that some may go through-- I haven't actually got to the due date yet.. it's Thursday.. but I feel like God has been preparing my heart for it. I truly believe that is part of the healing process after you lose a child. Learning that God did not cause what happened and even though we don't understand the WHY'S we know what we do understand and hold onto that. If we focus on the why's we will lose hope.

So if you are nearing a due date of your precious little one, make it a day of honoring them with your heart. A friend of mine is having a bbq with her family on that day. I am so proud of her for doing something to honor that day and her babies memory. It will be a day she will remember forever and she will be sharing it with friends and family.

Another thing I wanted to share w/you ladies is that God is a restorer! He will heal your heart and restore all that was lost to you. Hang onto the hope that we have in Him! A hope that anchors us and lets us look brightly into our future!

I dearly care for you all! If you all lived near me I would have you all over for chocolate cake and milk and watch a great movie!!

Treat yourself to some comfort and a good time, even if its just relaxing at home with some good friends or your hubby!! You deserve it and you are precious and valuable!!!

Love to you all!!

XOXO Jen
