Two mamas are on my mind and in my prayers tonight.
Over at Roscommon Acres, Dana celebrated the second birthday of her little boy "Tiggy" today. It was like any other toddler birthday with a cake, decorations,games, families, and stories. Except for this: Tiggy died in December after a tragic accident.
If it were me...I'd probably be crying in my bed all day. If it were me....I'd be unable to eat, let alone have some birthday cake. And yet. Dana is choosing to celebrate the life of her little boy, to give her other children the joy of celebrating their beloved brother.
And when most mothers might feel a bit protective and understandably selfish about this precious birthday, Dana asked her readers to share stories and memories of their own children.
She is a beautiful soul. I am humbled by the generosity of her spirit. God is truly speaking through her words and teaching so many people about how to live out the grieving process with grace.
I am also thinking of Rebecca at Bending Birches. Tomorrow her little boy will be going for a medical procedure. Like any mother she's nervous and worried. And so grateful for the support people have shown her.
Lord, be with them. Bless them. Keep them in the palm of your hand. Be their rock.
I am so grateful for this blogosphere....it gives us such great opportunities to pray for each other!
