  It's 12:38 p.m. We're done with school and the kids are playing with the girl I homeschool on Thursdays and Fridays. I'm checking my messages and pondering life. Sad news from another. On Monday, a woman from church whose has a daughter with whom my daughter plays, had her water break. The baby had problems and was delivered by emergency c-section. It was born with severe problems and hooked up to life support. The decision was made and the plug pulled. The little girl died and the burial will be tomorrow. The family is dealing well with it. There had been problems in the pregnancy. It's also helpful to have the gospel in your life at times like these.
You know that you will be together again with your baby-it's not an end all to everything. However, it's also one of those major fears we (at least we women) have. A dear friend of mine had this happen four years ago. She gave birth to two twin daughters. One is brain damaged,but, the sweetest girl there is. The other lived two weeks. She's pregnant now with their first son. Their oldest is six-just three weeks older than Zoe.
They love playing together, which is great, because we moms love chatting! lol (what, me? ) She really is a source of inspiration for me, though,too. On a lighter note, I've really got to find some ground cover roses. I've got a corner on the driveway where I'm putting them in. They are not easy to find, however. I think I know where I can look. I also need to find some cherries and apricots. I've located some local raw honey-I'm almost totally out-maybe two tablespoons left, if I'm lucky! I need to call on that. Okay-now I'm just thinking out loud here. Good think I'm thinking of a shopping list! lol
