My heart is hurting for a friend who will bury her grandson tomorrow. It is so painful to have to bury a baby. Knowing that you will never see their face again is just so hard. Join me in praying for her and her family tomorrow at 10 o'clock. I feel guilty because I really want to go to the funeral but it is just too close to losing Beckett for me to handle. So I have decided that tomorrow at 10 I will stop teaching go to my desk and just pray for them. It is the only thing I can do for her. Losing a child or grandchild is the worst thing in the world.
Today I got to go on a date with my son. This boy is so incredible. He is so smart. We went to the Bible book store and he wanted a new Bible. Then he wanted to read from Revelations to me on the way home. For the first time we really got to talk about Beckett. It was a good conversation. Coleman told me he hopes that we have another baby because he wants a chance to be a big brother again. He understands that Beckett can't be replaced but he wants a baby brother. I didn't have the heart to tell him it could be a girl. He amazes me. He really is a great brother. He plays with Makaley, helps her clean her room, and lets her terrorize him and he rarely complains. Beckett would have been so blessed to have Coleman. Coleman had already said he wanted to coach all of his teams and teach him play sports and fish. Coleman is just an amazing kid! I think Coleman is so great because of the example of his dad. Justin is an amazing father and husband and has taught Coleman how he should treat others. Once again I just want to say....I am blessed!
So happy to see this post... I like that you are having a good time with your kiddos. You deserve some quality time with them. I think about you often.
