EVERYTHING! We like to see the transparency - maybe because I am too afraid to be it myself. I agree with Tesha - had never been able to put it into words, though...the crying thing,<br /><br />Anyway, hope to catch up soon!<br /><br />XOTashenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15202469234826589084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4848841850745935982.post-46579852226558455312012-07-14T11:29:25.419-05:002012-07-14T11:29:25.419-05:00Oh my that brought a need tear.

I have also posted some painful post and felt the sting of judgment. I have to say it is worth it. Worth remembering how I really felt, worth letting others know that it ok to feel these things. I love that you are so honest and your transparency always show a heart the LOVES her family and LOVES her Jesus. I love how you talked of Jack I could see him in my heart I could see you tickling and loving him. Funny how writing/talking about our sweet sons makes us feel close to them, I guess it is all we can really do for them:(. I so appreciate how even in your pain your always thinking of others. Either thankful for them or praying for them. You are a shining light my friend beautiful and bright!

I, so, can picture Toddler Jack as you describe him shared on your blog. And, I cry.<br /><br />I love the picture of Shellee and baby Grace. How poignant and what a gift of friendship and Christian love. Grace's sweet smile, almost like she was sending her own thoughts about Jack. Too precious!<br /><br />Hope that you have fun working. I can do manual labor, but the whole time I am thinking that I am thankful that I like to teach. By the way, do you have a garden this year? Just wondering.
