My first time holding Joshua. |
51.
The number of days Joshua was alive.
Now the number of days he has been dead.
Tomorrow, he will be gone longer than he was alive.
It's not fair.

Praying for you sweet momma. I can't imagine what you are going through. May God give you peace that passes all understanding. Love you!
Thinking of your pretty face. ::mwah::
May the arms of love be wrapped around you as you go through this day.
As I sit here crying for you I want to remind you... Joshua was still with you nine months before he was in your arms. Tomorrow he will not have been gone longer than he was here. No, it's not fair. Life rarely is. But we have an eternal hope. Right?
"So we do not lose heart. Though our outer self is wasting away, our inner self is bring renewed day by day. For this light, momentary afflilction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison. So we look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen. For the things that are seen are transient, but the things that are unseen are eternal."
2 Corinthians 4: 17- 18
Hi Jill, We have never met, but I think of your sweet family and baby Joshua everyday. He is such a sweet little boy with eyes that melt my heart <3
Always praying for you......
Jill, I'm so sorry honey. I wish like anything I could ease your pain!!! My heart breaks for all our little Angels & all of us left behind dealing with the aftermath. Life sucks. It's not fair. And for that I'm so sorry for all of us. Love and prayers to you my dear friend.
Sending you lots of hugs from Ohio. ♥
My heart is aching for you and your family. I can't even begin to imagine the pain you feel but your posts are a gentle reminder to parents everywhere to hug our children a little bit tighter and be a little more patient when they're naughty. If nothing else, you can be proud that you are encouraging parents to be a little better and take less for granted.
This is the first time I have visited your blog since Joshua's death. I am so, so sorry for your loss.
I searched on your blog for a way to contact you, but found none (maybe I am too sleep deprived). I just wanted to lend you my support in the wake of the attacks you have received over the past month. I am probably one of the very few people in the world who have stood in those same shoes, watching my baby boy be circumcised just before he came home, after 10 weeks in the NICU following his Norwood. I am from Noblesville, and there is a good chance you and I even stood in the same hospital, and conversed with the same physicians. After 2.5 years of working with these people, and being a parent of a little boy with HLHS, I KNOW neither you nor they would carelessly put your child in harm's way. Your attackers haven't known your situation. I do, intensely. You parented your child the way you thought was best, and you did a beautiful job.
I hope that my words aren't getting old...but I really do think of you and pray for you often. I can't imagine your heartache.
Im so sorry.
*hugs* :(
Remembering Joshua and honoring God.
For Baby Joshua
