This week has been an emotional one for me. Starting with Mother's Day on Sunday. I love being a mother of three beautiful children and one heavenly angel. But because I cannot spend these special moments with ALL of my children my heart aches. It aches for those moments that I'll never have with Lila Rae. Sometimes when I am having a bad moment and one of my babies gives me a hug or a kiss or just a smile, I see her shining through. I miss her so much.
And then yesterday, May 12, 2010, our business's headquarters burned to the ground. For six years we have built businesses there, spent 4th of July's there, and well united as a family. It is sad and I can't get to into right now because its still emotional to talk about. I'll remember something that I had stored up there (like my wedding dress) and I'll get emotional and then have to move on....what else is there to do. I have a God who is seeing us through!
So I just LoVe this chick!! Her music is awesome. I just happened to get her CD last week (God working...He knew I would need her music) and this one sticks out in my mind right now. He is here! God is in the midst of ALL of this! Before, After, and the Time In Between.

Janie - not sure if you remember me from CR/D-Town and UF but I found your blog through Annie's and wanted to letyou know that I'm praying for you and the family as you deal with these challenges. You have a beautiful family.
There is nothing that any of us could ever say that would make you feel better - the only words ever spoken that heal are God's Word..and Jesus is the Word - so I speak the name of my Jesus over you, over and over and over again........Love, Aunt Andie
It is amazing how God shows us His grace and mercy during times like these. Allow yourself to be surrounded with those who have the gift of prayer, compassion, love and understanding, for these are their gifts to give in your time of need.
It hurts my heart that I cannot be there with you. But you know you, Cory and those babies, are constantly in my thoughts and prayers.
loving you......
My heart is breaking because I cannot be there with you. You know Daddy and I are sending our love to you all.
May the God of Grace and Mercy hold you in his hand and carry you when you are too weak to walk! Lots of Love and Prayers are coming your way!!!
Janie,
I saw your FB pics and I do not know the details of all that has gone on, but I just wanted you to know that I have been praying for you and for your family. God has me up at random times these days with a new baby. Many times he brings people to mind while I am sitting with Amelia in her nursery. Just wanted you to know that it is in those moments that I am lifting you up to THE HIGHEST THRONE! I love you my sweet friend. Please let me know what I can do.
