Today was harder than I expected it to be...there was an empty - TopicsExpress

Today was harder than I expected it to be...there was an empty chair that my Granny had filled all my life and I longed to see her soaking up the holiday w/all the family gathered. Then there was the gaping hole of the missing high chair when our Kylie Noel should be for her 1st of many Thanksgivings. My heart ached and felt the loss many times today. My flesh wanted to just hide and skip this day all together....BUT then, my God opened my eyes to my love & rock of a husband, my vivacious 2 kiddos, my precious PaPa standing strong, my loving momma who pulled off the most amazing meal with all the favorites that her own momma taught her to make, my brother and sister who havent left our sides, my daddy who through his own pain has held us all up in ways hell never know and then....the miraculous little girl in my quickly growing tummy. How could I not take part in this day & take note of all the blessings I have to be grateful for. My Saving Grace.....ALL that He does and places in our lives to give us just what we need so He can carry us through this life with all its mountain tops and deepest valleys, if well let Him. My Kye Kye and my Granny....Im grateful you have been given to us no matter how short or long a time and my faith & trust in our Savior is deeper because of you both. Because He lives, you both are alive and well and I will be with you again! Until then, I will take joy in today and take hope in tomorrow! 💘 One day Closer!💘
