It's that time again...

Yesterday and today mark the 4th Anniversary of Isaac and Luke's passing. I have thought about it all month and only have broke down once (on my birthday). I can't believe I have gotten through these past two days without breaking down or losing my cool. I have been busy though with my other blessings from God.

Don't get me wrong, I have thought about Isaac and Luke...a lot...these past two days. We visited the cemetery today after doing some shopping in GR. I find, though, that as each year passes it becomes less of a day of mourning and more a day of celebration. I have thought about these past two days as a kind of rejoicing, knowing that Isaac and Luke are in the best place...EVER! A place of no pain, no sickness, no fear, no sorrow. A place that is eternal life. How can I not rejoice that I have two children that send me joy from Heaven...daily! So these past two days have not been sad, but rather joyful. Knowing that some day I will see them and rejoice with them.

Until then, I will live out God's purpose for me here. I will continue to raise a family that brings me joy on earth...daily!

Sometimes it feels like yesterday....
Sometimes it feels like forever....

It's amazing and wonderful to think of all that God had brought you through and all that He has given to you over the last four years. Your children in Heaven and on earth are blessed beyond words.

Excellent attitude, Sarah. Thanks for sharing that with the rest of us. And you're right - someday you will get to love on those boys in heaven!
