ALWAYS    By: Plumb

Out of nowhere
You came
From a little dust
And a little rain
And when I looked down at 
Your face
It showed to me 
The truth and grace

I will always try to keep you very safe

So open up your eyes
So they can look in mine
And see a small reflection
And when you close your eyes
I pray the thoughts inside
Are beautiful and true

I won't always
Be this strong
And I won't always
Be the one
To kiss the bruise
Or heal the scrapes
To wipe the tear drops
From your face

But I will always love you more each day

So open up your eyes
So they can look in mine
And see a small reflection
And when you close your eyes
I pray the thoughts inside
Are beautiful and true

I will always love you more each day
I will always try to keep you safe

So open up your eyes
So they can look in mine
And see a small reflection
And when you close your eyes
I pray the thoughts inside
Are beautiful and true

I will always 
I will always ... love you

IN MY ARMS    By: Plumb

Your baby blues
So full of wonder
Your curlicues
Your contagious smile
And as I watch 
You start to grow up
All I can do is hold you tight
Knowing

Clouds will rage and
Storms will race in
But you will be safe in my arms
Rains will pour down 
Waves will crash all around
But you will be safe in my arms

Story books
Are full of fairy-tales
Of kings and queens
And the bluest skies
My heart is torn just in knowing
You'll someday see
The truth for lies
When the

Clouds will rage and
Storms will race in
But you will be safe in my arms
Rains will pour down 
Waves will crash all around
But you will be safe in my arms


Castles they might crumble
Dreams may not come true
But you are never all alone
Cause I will always
Always love you

Hey I
Hey I
Will love

Clouds will rage and
Storms will race in
But you will be safe in my arms
Rains will pour down 
Waves will crash all around
But you will be safe in my arms

In my arms

Please Click: Breast Cancer Site

The Breast Cancer site is having trouble getting enough people to click on their site daily to meet their quota of donating at least one free mammogram a day to an underprivileged woman. It takes less than a minute to go to their site and click on 'donating a mammogram' for free (pink window in the middle).

It just takes 2 clicks...onto the website and then in the pink box.  No information is needed.  That's it!

This doesn't cost you a thing. Their corporate sponsors/advertisers use the number of daily visits to donate mammogram in exchange for advertising.

YOU COULD ACTUALLY MAKE IT A DAILY ROUTINE AND KNOW THAT YOUR A PART OF A HELPING CAUSE TO HELPING WOMEN WITH BREAST CANCER!!!!

 

Here's the web site! Pass it along to people you know. 

Today's Quote 

Think of all the beauty still left around you and be happy.

Joy does not simply happen to us. We have to choose joy and keep choosing it every day. (SO TRUE!!)

By the way I feel really bad.  I was not home in time for the candle light last night. I got home from my shoot around 8:00 pm and then had to get busy with the baby, feeding, putting her to bed, shower myself etc.....

I did stop and say a prayer though for each child lost and for each parent suffering.  

God Bless.  

Remembering: ALL OF THEM

This is also a LIFE!!

I too miscarried before I had Morgan. I planned that pregnancy too. We tried, I got pregnant, we prayed and we were thankful. I still have that positive test. 

The morning of my doctors appointment I started to bleed heavily as well. I also saw shedding of clots that had fallen out of me. I even remember starring down into the toilet and I KNEW it was my baby sitting there. I wanted to reach down and grab it, but didn't. 

I stayed strong. I was disappointed and also tried to not show real emotion about it. However as time went on...I started to feel more and more sad about it. I bled so much for over 2 months. I had to go in every 2 days for blood work until my numbers went down to zero. My body for many weeks after kept telling me I was pregnant. Which then I was told that my body wasn't getting rid of the full remains and so I needed assistance. 

They gave me two shots of this stuff, I forget the name in which is really 'used' to abort pregnancy. How awful that made me feel knowing what was being put in my body. I then cried that day while at lunch with Mark. I felt I had really truly lost something. And I did!!! No matter how big or small...my baby was a live and living for those 6 to 7 weeks inside me. 

It was even harder to keep seeing a positive pregnancy test for weeks afterwards. I was really struggling with that because we wanted a baby and each time I saw that "positive" stick.... I would know that it was still from my baby that didn't make it. So although I lost my baby at 6 to 7 weeks gestation, my body stayed with it for a total of about 4 months when you add the 2 months after the miscarriage that I continued to bleed and remain positive on the pregnancy test. 

It was an emotional time and I am thankful for the support I had around me when I went through it.  Don't let anyone tell you that "it isn't a big deal" when you miscarry, no matter how far along you were. Don't let doctors ramble off with percentages of this happening or even blowing it off as just a "etopic pregnancy".  Just research how many living and breathing babies are walking around today that was from an "etopic pregnancy".  It was ALIVE enough for you to have a positive pregnancy reading, then it was ALIVE period and that means it was a LIFE that didn't make it.  

I want to take this opportunity to think about the parents who have lost children, and remember those babies that are no longer with their families and say a prayer for each hurting heart out there today and tonight.  

Thinking of you my little baby, I am sorry I never got to meet you, but know I will one day see you again.  Love - Mom

THIS IS A LIFE!!!!  

I will NOT post for the the entire day (Oct. 15h).... I give this silence to those precious little tiny hearts that lost their beats, and prayer to those hearts that will forever and always be part broken.
