Today I am thankful for the 78 days that I got to spend with the most amazing little boy. He has made me a better person. I am also thankful for the wonderful support from our family and friends and to all of you that have shown so much love to us. Some of you I do not even know but just having all of you to be right along side of us , means so much. The love is overwhelming and gives us comfort.
Happy Thanksgiving from the Sugar's I hope you all spent it with the ones you love the most. I know my sweet angel was with us all today. He is missed dearly.
thank you for sharing your journey. your sweet boy will be missed by so many. God will continue to give you guidance each day.
ReplyDeleteAngie, I was thinking about you all day yesterday. I certainly cannot say I know how you feel... but I do know how it feels to lose someone you love. I lost my Husband 13 years ago to Kidney Cancer. I know the pain of losing a child is greater, as all I had to do was look at My Mother & Father in Law and I knew their pain was much greater. Over the years it has gotten better for all of us.. we've never forgetten Tim, but at least for me he is such a fond memory of the Good times. Every first is hard.. so I knew Thanksgiving was going to be tough for you. You are an amazing young woman, and God has great plans for you... I can just feel it. With God's continued Blessings Karen
ReplyDeleteI made a promise to myself when I read of Liam's passing...I will ALWAYS be thankful for what I have. Although I wish it wouldn't have happened, you've been an inspiration to me. Sending all my prayers to you and your family.
ReplyDeleteI can't imagine how much you are missing Liam right now...we all miss him so much that I can't imagine what you must be going through. I will pray always for you.
ReplyDeleteWhat makes a Mother
ReplyDeleteI thought of you and closed my eyes And prayed to God today.
I asked what makes a Mother And I know I heard him say.
A Mother has a baby This we know is true.'
But God, can you be a Mother When your baby's not with you?
Yes, you can, He replied With confidence in His voice
I give many women babies When they leave is not their choice.
Some I send for a lifetime And others for a day.
And some I send to feel your womb But there's no need to stay.
I just don't understand this, God I want my baby here
He took a breath and cleared His throat And then I saw a tear.
I wish I could show you What your child is doing today.
If you could see your child smile With other children and say:
"We go to earth to learn our lessons Of love and life and fear.
My Mommy loved me oh so much I got to come straight here.
I feel so lucky to have a Mom Who had so much love for me
I learned my lesson very quickly My Mommy set me free.
I miss my Mommy oh so much But I visit her each day.
When she goes to sleep On her pillow's where I lay.
I stroke her hair and kiss her cheek And whisper in her ear.
"Mommy don't be sad today I'm your baby and I'm here."
So you see my dear sweet one Your children are ok
Your babies are here in My home And this is where they'll stay.
They'll wait for you with Me Until your lesson is through.
And on the day that you come home They'll be at the gates for you.
So now you see what makes a Mother It's the feeling in your heart.
It's the love you had so much of Right from the very start.
Though some on earth may not realize
You are a Mother until their time is done.
They'll be up here with Me one day And you know you're the best one!
