Another Good-bye
Wednesday morning another of our little friends from the hospital passed away. She was 3 and cute as a button. Whenever she was outside her room she would wear big dangly plastic clip on earings, necklaces and her mask. She was a dancer and singer. Her mother has a great sense of humor and she always made me laugh even during really hard days in the hospital. Isabel was such an amazing little girl and we could not be more sorry. Love you guys.

Heatache! And yet, at the same time, it's another friend to be with Alivia. I told Dan the other night, "If something were to happen to me and we really do see our loved ones in Heaven, you know the first person I want to find?" He thought of my dad. But he was wrong. I said Alivia. Because I miss her--and because I would miss Jude (and soon to be Baby Girl) too. I would need her there. And I'm sure these friends of hers feel the same way. They are probably having a ball, playing at the feet of Jesus. What a great picture!
Miss you, Emily!

Ah, man...I hate when I don't preview my comments and I say "HEAT-ACHE" instead of "HEART-ACHE." Doh! :(
it's always so hard to say good-bye, even when we know they feel no more pain. I will pray for that family. I hope you had a good week this week and I will continue to pray for you guys as I know you are still missing livi dearly.
luv ya emily,
Moriah
awww that is so sad...I'll be praying for her family! I'm sure Livi and her are having a blast together!
Praying for you,especially with all the heartache. No good words for all this pain. Just know that God IS still in control. What more joy to look forward to in Heaven! -Sue F.

My heart breaks for the grief you share with these families and yet I rejoice for the glory these children are shining in now. Amazing spirit!
Praying on,

Oh, Emily!
It just seems like these sorrows will never end...
Makes me homesick for heaven.
Y'know...we won't be spending eternity wearing white nightgowns and sitting on clouds while we play harps. God will have us DO something; some really meaningful "work".
I heard a pastor say one time that he thought maybe those whose children have gone before them will raise them in heaven. Can you imagine that? No more sickness of ANY kind; not even a single "boo-boo". Not having to caution them against strangers, no worry of traffic while they play on the streets of gold. Never having to comfort them because they were made fun of. No succumbing to bad peer pressure. No disobedient or rebellious teenagers...just perfect family harmony.
Sometimes it seems that this ole world has less and less to offer.
God bless you as you serve Isabel's family. As someone who has walked this path, I know that you are a comfort to them.
Still praying!

Praying for all of you. I cannot begin to imagine the pain you all feel. I will keep on praying.
Hi Emily,
It's the middle of the night and I've just read through almost your entire blog. I found a link to you from Kendall Manz (www.manzvillecanada.blogspot.com), who I also don't know. I cannot fathom the depth of your anguish at the loss of your sweet baby girl. I don't have adequate words, but wanted to say that you will be in my prayers as you face life without Livi.
