Another year of remembering the little ones we carried for a season, and a time of teaching our children that life is precious. Even when the world says they are worth nothing as unborn babies, as old people in a hospital, or simply because someone says you're just not worth living - that's not true.
All life is given by God. And it's God's job to take it back. Even when we want to hold onto them so much... it's not our decision.
So, just like the Israelites were taught how to remember - we are trying to teach our kids to remember their siblings, and that all life has a purpose. Even if it's for a short time.
And if you lose a baby, don't think it wasn't God's will that this baby to be... cause it was. It was God's will that that little one made it that far. It was in God's plan that it's heart started to beat. But for some reason, it wasn't God's will to make it all the way to our arms. But to be taken to heaven.
Really - that's God's will for us all.
Ben and Deanna, remembering Asher.
Remembering our four that we have lost.
Letting go of the balloons.
Ben took my camera and started snapping of us. :)
Two cousins profiles. :)
And then some hot chocolate followed and chatting and to bed for all.
