DAY 9

 

So it's the final day. We have made it very well through the last week. I have been playing memories, situations, words in my head all week that happened a year ago. I remember specific events with specific people. I don't find as much saddness because we lost Noah, I just remember being there. Truth is because we lost Noah a year ago, and I think we have worked hard in the last year to deal with that. So during this time, it is the memories that are flooding unconsciously into my mind. Sometimes I am overwhelmed by them, but for the most part we were able to enjoy normal, everyday life through this week of remembrance.

I want to say thank you for remembering Noah. We will never forget, and it is so nice to hear that you will not either. We received flowers, cards, emails, comments that have really touched us. They were the words of God comforting us on the hard days, they were God's hands hugging us through a sweet card, most of all they were reminders that Noah touched your life too.

I am not sure what the future holds for this blog. I will not remove it, but as this year as come and gone, I don't feel that there is too much left unsaid. Thank you for reading, thank you for loving us. We have been blessed by this experience in only a way that God can do.

I lost a child a little over a year ago, and have been working on a scrapbook for him. Your photos have inspired me to continue and finish what I have begun.

You and your family are in my prayers though we do not know each other. God is our strength and our hope.

Blessings...
