realization


It has been a while since I have added anything to this blog. I don’t think there is really anyone who reads it so I suppose I blog more for myself than anything else; but hey, if my random thoughts and ramblings can help someone else, I suppose that is the reason I put it all out there. I logged into facebook this morning (who am I kidding, I am always logged into facebook) and my friend’s blog was at the top of my news feed. Her daughter is in heaven with Story. She is expecting a little girl this year. The blog is a letter to her daughter in heaven and in the letter she promised to tell the new baby all about her sister she would never meet. I struggled to catch my breath as I realized that Chapel would never know Story. Even if she was here on this earth for a short amount of time, my children knew her as their sister. The held her, loved her, and she was real to them. She will only ever be a story (pun not intended but so painfully true) to Chapel.
