Today we saw
the faces of our
children.
they were beautiful
they were perfect
I woke up this
morning
to feel them both
kicking.
Playing games.
they tapped in unison
1 – 2 – 3 – 4
Saskia & Arne
were born Tuesday
28 February 2012
We held them
as long as we could
and then we said
our farewells.
They are in the arms
of angels now
keeping watch over
us.
This chapter of our
lives has ended
and we don’t know
where the story will pick up again.
We don’t know when we
will feel alive again.
Maybe the coming
Spring will warm our hearts.
Maybe it will come
with Christmas,
when it’s time to
celebrate the birth
of another Child.
the One that will
help us through this agony
-------------------------------
I am turning off my
computer after sending this
and will step away for a while.
and will step away for a while.
I don’t know when we
will be able
to pick up the phone again, answer the door.
to pick up the phone again, answer the door.
Do not worry.
We know you are with
us.
Thinking about us.
That once again you
have surrounded us
with love and
prayers.
We feel it and thank
you.
My heart breaks with yours dear friends. Prayers for all of you.
ReplyDeleteOh Jovita and Axel. My thoughts and prayers are with you both. I know there's nothing I can say to make it even a little easier, but know that you are lifted up. *Hugs*
ReplyDeleteJovita and Axel, If thoughts could be arms they would wrap around the world to reach you and hold you close. I, like so many others, have loved you and rejoiced with you and now wish we could just carry you. I am so sorry with you both. Love Jill T.
