It's funny that I still catch myself thinking, he's really not coming home, he's not coming home ever. When will this stop feeling like a bad dream? I just feel like such a big part of me is missing now. How did this happen? When did this become my life? Some days it just doesn't feel real to me. I just want so badly to go back to last summer, to relive my time with him. It was so short. I didn't get enough time....I just want more time.

Lord, help me to be content with your plan for me. Help me to find the peace and strength I need to navigate this life without him. I know that your with me and that I can do all things through you. This just seems like too much for me right now. I need you to hold my hand in this darkness and help me climb out of this pit. Give me the grace I need. Guide my steps by your will and help me to trust those steps are on steady ground. ~Amen~

On my knees with you. There are so many things that I wish I could go back and do. I wish I could have had more time too.

What a beautiful, authentic post. Don't we all just feel like this is a nightmare, and we will wake up??

I'm just so sorry, Jennifer. His pictures are so beautiful. I'm still keenly aware, every day, that our baby is not here with us. I'm glad we have each other, at least in BlogLand.
