I keep thinking I'm "over" being sad about the little ones of mine who are in heaven now. We had a rough week as I realized my baby catherine is not so much in the itty bitty baby stage anymore... and she's NOT the little one I lost. I really DID have a baby I never got to hold and kiss and I'm really not over it fully yet. I hated going through every part of it, but I get calls almost everyday of someone just wanting to talk to someone who understands and has walked that path. It's a little ministry that I would have never really chosen, but am so thankful God can use me to help others going through a hard time.
Here's another book I haven't read yet, but I know it will be awesome. "A Symphony in the Dark" I've been following her sweet story of Molly for awhile and am so excited she was able to get her story on paper. She was so very open and real about what she is going through AND it SO pointed me to Christ every time I read about her struggle. She was saying aloud what my heart was trying to communicate to others. Her words are SO MUCH better than mine but I could feel everything she was going through. She understood me, and I wasn't crazy and alone with what I was feeling. It's wild how you can bond with someone you never even met because of your circumstances. (that kinda sounds like I know her or have even talked to her...I haven't...it sounds a little stalker I know... I promise I'm not totally going nuts on ya'll. I am half way normal..I might not know her, but I'm pretty sure our little ones are friends in heaven :)
It REALLY helps to have someone to talk with while your processing...I totally understand that. I'm pretty sure this book would be super to give to a friend who is dealing with loss. Don't forget "Empty Arms" is a great resource too!
