6 months Already

At 6 months babies celebrate major milestones.They sit ,wean and look all cute. This Friday, it shall be 6months since we held Jaden. Somehow my mind doesn't allow me to imagine how he would be looking at 7months. Guess God allowed my mind to handle the 4 Saturdays he gave Jaden to us and am content. I have been privileged to talk to women who either miscarried or lost their babies immediately after birth. I am grateful for the sweet memories and Joy Jaden brought to our lives for the time we were together. Short yes but precious times.


Didn't know what to write today but I wanted to  note that:-
  1. I have come to know God is very real and is  near. He touches where it hurts and soothes the pains.
  2. Each day has become more bearable.Some days pass and I do not think about about my loss.
  3. I hardly hear the baby next door cry nor do I notice his clothes hang outside as I used to.
  4. Samara had stopped to ask about her brother but last week she did and we talked about Jaden.
  5. It shall be one year soon and I have been wondering what to do either on his one year birthday or one year memorial, they are just one month apart.
Prayer
Dear Lord, thank you for your great love for me. Thank you for blessing my womb twice and blessing me with amazing and beautiful children. Each day I wake up , I know am blessed to be alive and breathing. I now realise that pregnancy takes the Hand of God and holding a baby in ones arms is a great honour.

Thank you for allowing me to be a mum to Samara who is now 3years and 4months and having allowed me to be a mum to Jaden, who is now with you. I am blessed because through them, I have drawn closer to you. Through the storms with these two blessings, I have experienced your great love and faithfulness. Through Samara's smiles,hugs, kisses and I love you mummy,I am reminded of your love towards me. She is always a timely voice that constantly reminds me that you are close by.

So today, 6 months later, am thankful for all and say you still are my Rock and in You I am safe. In Jesus name I have prayed.

Amen

Unconditional love

As I went home last yesterday, I heard the song 'In harms way'  by BeBe Winans, Rhett Lawrence, Margaret Bell-Byars. When listening to music, I want to know the lyrics,what the song is communicating and how it applies in my life. This song reminds me of God's unconditional love, even when I do not deserve it, even when I have given up , even when he knows all He knows about me, he doesn't let go of me. That is just amazing. Undying love you've given to me Seen in me things I would never have seen I don't understand why you care so much, it's all a mystery Time and time again I ask myself What have I done to deserve such wealth The price you paid, I could never repay your generosity Chorus: In wanting to save me In order to save the day Because of love you placed yourself In harm's way It's truly beyond me Left without a word to say What kind of love would place itself In harm's way? What kind of love would place itself In harm...

My Journey with Caleb's Family

A friend requested me to share my story on the journey we walked with Caleb's family. So below is a very long blog on that over 1 month. Am not sure what is in store for us ahead but this far it has been God. After our experience with Atrial Septal Defect(ASD) through our daughter Samara, I felt within me a call to look for people to partner with regarding kids with heart issues. So In January this year, I checked the net and bumped into a local NGO. The organization basically deals with kids with heart defects from poor families. I thought it was a noble call and contacted the organization. They were fast to respond and I visited them alone and over the weekend on a Saturday with my family. On the Saturday we went, we met Caleb and his parents. This was end of January and they were discussing with the founder of the organization about how to raise airfare for them to travel to India, first week of February. I held Caleb briefly in my arms and his mum kept saying one day her...

Atrial Septal Defect

Atrial septal defect (ASD), is a heart condition that can affect kids. Normal Heart Function To understand an ASD, it helps to know how the heart works. The heart has four chambers. The lower chambers of the heart are called the ventricles: a left ventricle and a right ventricle. The upper chambers are the atria and there are two— a left atrium and a right atrium. You may already know that your heart is a muscle that pumps blood throughout your body. In a person without a heart defect, blue blood that's low in oxygen flows first to the right atrium, then to the right ventricle, and is then pumped to the lungs to receive oxygen. The red oxygen-rich blood then returns to the left atrium, flows from there into the left ventricle, and heads out to the body through the aorta, a large blood vessel that carries blood from the heart to the smaller blood vessels in the body. Between the right and left atria is a wall called the septum that...
