I'm an extra thankful mama these days. This last Sunday at church I was reading the hand out and my eyes fixed on the prayer requests and one was for a couple whose son was born April 1st and only lived 90 minutes. Sad, very sad. I just can't shake the thought, the agony, and the pain that couple is going through. I found out that they knew ahead of time their baby was not going live but it doesn't hurt less... I had 6 months with my dad and wasn't enough, it's never enough.
I am beyond thankful to have Akyah as my daughter and that she is such a beautiful/happy baby but most of all I am that she is healthy and perfect in every way! I find myself in the middle of Holy week and even though there are a lot of things in my life that I wish were different, things that are hurting me, and things that I know will never change even though I desperately wish they would I can't help but be thankful.
I love Akyah more than anything on earth, I fall more in-love with her every day and know there is no greater love than that between a mother and her child… A love and bond that cannot be broken.

Oh, wow! I follow that woman's blog, I think. Logan was the baby, right, and he had Meckle- Gruber syndrome? So hard to put yourself in their shoes, but they have relied on God through it all. I read that they did get 90 minutes with him before he passed. leesesroom.blogspot.com
