4 WEEKS OLD...

THIS PRECIOUS GIFT FROM GOD IS 4 WEEKS OLD TODAY...
COULDN'T YOU JUST EAT HIM UP? I KNOW, I SURE COULD:)


MY SWEET LITTLE SNUGGLE BEAR...


I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT LEVI IS ALREADY 4 WEEKS OLD. IT SEEMS IMPOSSIBLE THAT 4 WEEKS HAVE PASSED ALREADY. I JUST WANT TIME TO STAND STILL WITH THIS LITTLE GUY... SERIOUSLY I LOVE IT WHEN HE IS SOUND ASLEEP AFTER EATING AND I CAN JUST LAY HIM IN MY LAP AND STARE AT HIM... HE IS SO BEAUTIFUL...


I SORT OF LAUGH AND FEEL LIKE I CAN BRAG ON HOW PRECIOUS HE IS.... BECAUSE I KNOW I HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH IT:)


MY MEND LEADERSHIP CONFERENCE WAS REALLY GOOD. I LEARNED A LOT. I DO HAVE TO ADMIT IT WAS KIND OF EMOTIONALLY DRAINING FOR ME. I AM NOT FULLY SURE WHY. I HAVE NEVER SPENT THAT MUCH TIME WITH OTHER WOMEN WHO HAD LOSSES LIKE OURS. I REALLY ENJOYED GETTING TO KNOW THE OTHER WOMEN THAT I DID AND I AM PRAYING ABOUT MY ROLE IN MEND. I LOVE THE ORGANIZATION AND FEEL REALLY PASSIONATE ABOUT BEING THERE FOR OTHER WOMEN WHEN THEY ARE FRESH IN THEIR GRIEF. I STILL THANK GOD FOR MEND, AS I TRULY DON'T KNOW WHAT I WOULD HAVE DONE HAD THEY NOT BEEN HERE IN THE FIRST YEAR AFTER SAMUEL DIED.


WE HAD A BOWLING FUNDRAISER TODAY FOR A MINISTRY AT CHURCH... WE HAD A BALL... WE ALL SORT OF STINK WHEN IT COMES TO BOWLING, BUT WE REALLY HAD A GOOD TIME.


I AM OFF TO HIT THE HAY... I JUST WANTED TO SHARE A FEW PICS OF THE BIG 4 WEEK OLD:)

Awww! What a cute boy!!! Its also hard for me to believe that 4 weeks have passed! WOW! Praise God! Glad the mend conferance went well, I think it makes sense for you to feel drained from it though.

Where has the time gone!?!? It's going way too fast, that's for sure! Glad you had a great trip with MEND. I've been thinking about contacting them and trying to start a chapter here. Not sure what it all entails, but we'll see. Loved your comment about bowling..."We all had a ball"...no pun intended! HA! Still want to talk soon. Love you!

Hello,
I happened to stumble across your blog this afternoon. I don't even know HOW I came across your blog - all I can say is that it was Gods work at hand :)
Anyway, I was so very touched skimming through your blog. I haven't had all that much time to look through and learn about your family, but from what I have read - wow, I just want to wrap my arms around you and hug you. We too have lost a child..also in October. Our 5 month old daughter passed away on Oct. 27, 2007 - a night before my birthday. My heart aches for you in your pain, but I also rejoice with you in your joy! You have a beautiful family - I truly look forward to learning more about you! I haven't blogged in a LONG-LONG time, but if you are up for it; I would love to hear from you. You can email me at momleavingalegacy@yahoo.com

I look so forward to hearing back from you. I must run for now - my sweet baby is up from her nap :)

Hugs,
Kelly
