Her 21st month birthday...

......is today. And I miss her so much. There aren't any words for this kind of missing.  And yet at the same time, I am feeling lighter in my spirit than I have felt in so long.  God is helping me to open my hands, to trust Him. Because his gifts for us will be good. I don't know what they will look like and I don't have to have it all figured out.  And after feeling so heavy in my body, my spirit, my heart, for so very very long, it is strange and wonderful to Let Go..... 

I don't think for a minute that our grieving is done, or the hurt won't resurface with a vengeance.  I'm quite sure it will. But I am going to rest here in this moment, this day.  And it is good.  He is Good.

So....thank-you if you have been praying for us....
