Looking Upward
Well, the services are finally over and I feel an overwhelming sense of relief. Somehow, I feel like Seth and I can start trying to live again. I know my beautiful little girl is safe in the arms of Jesus. And although we don't understand why this has happened, we trust our Lord. My mom and dad just left and it was really emotional for me. They have been such a source of strength. But, Seth and I will finally have a chance to spend time together, just us, which we really need. My parents have been such an amazing support system through all of this, but the time has come for them to go home and for Seth and I to start trying to live again. I feel an overwhelming sense of peace. I am ready for the future and even though I know that there will be times that really hurt, I want to live. I still feel teary and I know the road ahead will be tough but we don't walk it alone.

Amanda,
Sometimes the truth i do not want to say, I don't want to hurt you with my secrets and fears, i tell you and i feel bad, i feel i leave a heavy burden for you. You are a true friend. You make this world a better and happier place to live in. You never stop believing in me and in you i see myself, just hopeing that one day i can be great to the Lord, the world and myself as you are. I can't feel your pain, but i do care and feel so much pain for you and your family now. I hope you know that this day is just one that will make you stronger than you already are and i hope you can use it to get you through the hard days that r going to arise. I wuv you hunni, you are the cheese to my macaroni, mwah
Amanda,
Reading what is on your heart has really been encouraging and uplifting to me. To hear that you have not given up and have not thrown in the towel really speaks alot on the kind of woman that you are. I am so happy that you are filled with such peace right now, and like you said I know that the road isn't going to be easy for you guys and there are surely going to still be times of pain but God is your source of strength and the comfort that you need during the times of being in the valley. We must go through times in the valley to make it to the top of the mountain though. God knows you and Seths hearts and He longs to give you the desires of your hearts..... Continue to trust in Him for His perfect plan for you guys and you WILL NOT be dissapointed. My thoughts and prayers continue to be with you guys.....
Much Love, Shell
The Lord has been working in Seth and you already. I can hear it in all of your posts. You are truly seeking Him. He will be your strength in this all. I have no idea what it is like to be going through what you are now either, but I know with God's love, you will be able to live on! Mia is with Jesus! Wow, thats what everyone wants for their child. I'm so glad you have that comfort on at least knowing that. I hope and wish each day will get easier. This might be stupid but if you ever need to walk or talk, I'm around. I'll be here for you!
Hey Lady,
I don't really want to repeat what everyone is saying, so I just want to say I love you and am with you, silently.... Also, if you need a pick me up, I would love to come and pamper you with a new hairdo when your ready..... Always remember we don't understand His ways, but His ways are best... Look at how God has worked, keep hold of that, later you will be amazed and say wow God you truley are amazing. Love you Lady.... Call when you want, I don't want to bother you till your ready.... Love, Mon
