Today

Today is Official Pregnancy and Infant Loss Day. We will be lighting a candle at 7 PM tonight to remember sweet Samantha Peep. We will also remember all the other little babies lost around the world to other families. We pray God gives all of you peace.

Miscarried Babies

Is it bad that I wish that I had miscarried at home or asked to see my baby and remains of my uterus? On the ultrasound, Samantha Peep (though gone) finally looked more like a little person than she did at 6.7 weeks. It's driving me crazy. I kept trying to envision.

Today, I just did an image search on miscarried 9 week babies. I wanted to see what my little Samantha might have looked like. For some reason (which probably no one else gets) it brought me comfort, a little more closure, and peace, to see this sweet little baby all curled up...I envision her sleeping and resting and just having drifted and flown off to Jesus peacefully. It is my hope that is how her transition from earth to heaven was like that.

Love you, baby.

He will save me

Psalm 34:18
The LORD is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.

Thanks to E.E.J. who shared this with me. I like where it says 'saves those.' I like that.....a lot.
