About precious little Isaac. I saw pictures of him on his birthday a few hours ago. He is beautiful in every way. My heart is aching so badly for his mommy and daddy right now. I can't imagine the pain that they must be experiencing. I can't imagine going to the hospital to give birth only to leave with a broken heart and empty arms.
Oh how I wish it weren't this way for his family or any family. Why does God take precious babies away from loving fparents?
I know that Isaac is in the most perfect of places right now, basking in the most perfect love. However, it still breaks my heart to know that he was only here for a short while.
Isaac, you are so so loved by so many on this earth. Your parents have given us all the remarkable gift of witnessing your short and precious life on this earth. May you rest in precious peace as you are with HIM and his perfect and glorious love. Your life has touched my heart in so many ways. You will never be forgotten.

Isaac
I've been following a story for a few days now about a baby that was given a grim prognosis at only 12wks while he was still in his mother's womb. He was born today and was on this earth for 16 precious minutes before going to be with the LORD. I am so heartbroken for his mommy right now. I can't imagine the pain she must be in as well as her husband. However, I was reminded that it is somewhat selfish to wish that precious baby were still here. Isaac was given the gift of Heaven today. Isaac with our LORD and he is a healthy and happy person who is looking down on his family and the world. Isaac is in the arms of Jesus, and that is the best place to be!
It doesn't seem fair sometimes that precious people like Isaac's mother have to suffer so, but the LORD has his reasons. Things like this make me realize how blessed I am to have such healthy children. Today has been another rough day with my 4 month old, Faith. She has fussed constantly all day today and I can't do much to get her to stop. I think that she is teething or maybe has an ear infection. The point is that while I'm frustrated with her and currently letting her cry so I can get a break, I realize that I am lucky and that Isaac's mommy would most likely trade places with me in a heartbeat. I shouldn't complain or get so frustrated with my children, but all mommies do so I'm not alone. I just sometimes question the fairness in what has happened to Isaac's family. Why must the good suffer so? My heart is breaking for this family right now and there are hundreds if not thousands who are feeling the same right now. Isaac has touched thousands of lives and he will never be forgotten.

Hmmm, what to say :)
I'm not good at this stuff...journaling. I just typed a bunch of stuff and erased it, it sounded dumb LOL. My brain is kind of fried right now. My little girl, Faith had a fussy day...really fussy..which can be soooo exhausting!!!! She's four months old and is starting to show signs of separation anxiety because when I put her down and walk away she cries. If I turn around and talk to her or even go back to comfort her she will stop. My poor two year old gets ignored a lot because of days like this and I feel just awful about it...but he'll survive right? I keep telling myself that in hopes that I'm not the topic in future therapy sessions. My parents ignored me and they are the topics in my therapy sessions..mostly my dad. I can do an entire blog site about my dad, he made such an impact on me..good and bad. He meant more to me than anyone ever has. I always dreamed of being daddy's little girl and it just never came to light.
Anyways, I'm sitting here listening to Andrew Zimmern on the TV. I'm not a fan of his show, Bourdain is much much better and WAY more attractive..not to mention his snarky attitude is much more preferable than a goofy worm eating bald guy (sorry Andrew). I watch a lot of shows that are "educational". I'm not into that dancing with the stars, American Idol, Greys Anatomy, prime time crap. I tend to go for stuff that can teach me something.
I'm always trying to learn something. Now don't get me wrong, I watch the occasional garbage...like Top Model (ANTM), or Janice Dickenson's modeling agency...gotta love Janice. I love blunt people like her. I love the diva types, the bitches of this world. We need people who will give it to us straight, this world is going soft..this PC stuff is a load!
