You make me want to be an excellent mother and cherish each and every moment that I have with my boys. Thank you! <BR/>I know you will never have a day, possibly even an hour that you do not think of Noah(having never been through losing a child I am not aware of how it hurts or how time heals or does not heal)..however it hurts I can imagine that there is an emptiness that may never fade so I am praying that you will ALWAYS come running to His cup so that you will never run dry and that you will find a never ending garment of praise for your heaviness. I do not know your routine and I know you are strong in Him .. if I may encourage you to sit at His feet and worship Him and pour your tears out to Him. I have felt so far away from God for the last few weeks and as I read your thoughts I try to think of something, some way to help you and I realize you are helping me and you encourage me to sit at His feet and worship because He is God and He does give and He does take away.. the only way to get through this life is to know Him and to bow down and worship.<BR/>Thank you for showing me how to stay faithful!!!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32529371.post-38596971485816206142007-04-14T19:53:00.000-06:002007-04-14T19:53:00.000-06:00AdrienneYES ...YES....

I hope the clouds tickle your toes and the sun warms your sweet face every day.<BR/><BR/>And happy three months to you Adrienne. You have done the most incredible things in these three months.

Not because I have become desensitized, but because I have learned to learn from your blogs...I have been inspired. It's funny, because there is not a day that goes by that I don't think of Noah. I was reading in the bible last night about Angels, and by literal definition, Noah was and is an Angel. His life has brought so many to Christ, new believers and strayed believers alike. I think about Noah daily, and I am genuinely sad that I did not even think about today being a three month anniversary. It must be hard for you today I could imagine, to think three months ago was the last day you spent with your little boy, and that is why I cry while reading today's blog. I put a prayer request in last week's offering dish for the prayer teams to pray for your family's continued strength. I pray daily for you and your family as well. The first time I read your blog and found out that Noah died on January 12th, it was only a week after that. I thought at the time, what was I doing on the 12th. I was driving to Big Bear, miserably ill...feeling sorry for myself, not imagining somewhere out there someone was losing their child. Around 1:45 we were driving up the mountain. There will be so many more months when the 12th rolls around, where we will all stop and think, and especially you Adrienne, and your husband and daughter, and you will think of Noah's rebirth. By God's will, you shall find joy and strength in such sadness. There are no tears past the gates of heaven...always remember Noah is an Angel watching over you guys, and he is not sad, for he is with our Father who is taking great care of him.<BR/><BR/>Take care Adrienne and family<BR/><BR/>Mary GeeslinAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32529371.post-87753693076247873412007-04-13T12:45:00.000-06:002007-04-13T12:45:00.000-06:00Thats heartbreacking and beautiful.
