One Year Birthday

Today (or thereabout) would have been our baby's 1 year birthday. She is not here with us to celebrate with cake and friends, however, today I do celebrate that we had 14 weeks with our baby and that one day we WILL be able to celebrate together!!

I'm doing good though...this had the potential of being a rough day, but I really am okay. God's good like that. :) I know God's hand is in all of this and He is in control. I'm sad that our baby isn't here with us but God has a reason for not allowing that. My job is just to trust. Today I do that. Trusting Him that His plans are better than mine!

  2. The first birthday is hard. Find a way to celebrate - we did and I felt closer to our angel. Hugs!!

  3. i know how you feel. this month our little girl would have been 18 months old. although my heart often breaks when i miss her, i at least find comfort she is in heaven,safe, with Jesus. when i say my prayers at night i often ask Jesus to give her a message for me.
    love,

  4. This is such a testament to resilience. There will be thousands of birthdays you'll celebrate with her in heaven. I expect to be invited to each one.

  5. Happy birthday, sweet one. Those eternal birthdays, without the trials of this world... I think that sometimes.. that is why God chooses to take some from us... to spare us.

    God bless you, you are amazing Lisa!

  6. Hi Lisa...been a while since I've read blogs but wanted to check in with you and say I'm still thinking about you and praying for you and your hubs. Anniversary's are hard. I know in time it will all come together like the most beautifully timed picture ever. I can't wait to see.
