What I really want to do is make the pain go away, to make it all better. I admire your ability ti share your story with us and let us be part of your family. <br /><br />I may have told you we had a baby, Sarah, pass away before birth. I was halfway through my pregnancy when we found out. I lived in a ward where everyone was pregnant or just had a baby. Both my sister and sister-in-law were pregnant and we were all due as well. I didn't want anyone to know, I didn't want to be the topic of gossip for the next few months. But we had an amazing bishop and RS president who gave me time to tell people when I was ready. <br /><br />When we went to the hospital to be induced, I was so miserable. My body simply would not give this baby up and after 24 hours, I begged the doctor to send me home. I had Sarah at home. I didn't get to hold her, (her egg sack delivered intact, fluid and all), but I got to look at her. She was perfectly formed and I could count fingers and toes.<br /><br />A few years later, I saw Sarah as a young woman. I had always described her as looking like her father, with red hair and blue eyes. She actually had dark hair and eyes--I think she wanted me to know that. It was amazing!<br /><br />Sarah would have been 21 this past September. I don't always think of her on her birthday but I always think of her in Fall. Fall is my favorite time of year and it is probably because of Sarah. When the leaves fall, that's when I think of her. <br /><br />I want you to know, they live! They are with us always. We are privileged to have children who will live in the Celestial Kingdom! We know where they are and they made it! I know families are eternal, and even when we can't see them, they see us. This life is literally just a blink of an eye in God's time. Hang on a little bit longer.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
