I Can So Relate
Numerous people have sent me links over the past few weeks, and I wanted to share a few that really resonated with me.
Marybeth Chapman, mother to Maria and wife of Stephen Curtis Chapman, on the 17 months since they lost Maria in a tragic accident.
Carrien at "She Laughs At the Days," mother of several young children. She wrote "Confessions" very aptly describing the wrestling match between a mother's exhausted body and the irresistible passage of time.
Another by Carrien entitled "Bra Shopping 101 with Toddler" -- hilarious, especially since I've had several similar experiences lately.
This series of posts by Jennifer, aka "McMama," on her current situation with Stellan, a one-year-old born with a lethal heart rhythm problem, currently in Boston for a very risky procedure. Read "I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry" first, then read "Cyclical" -- this is so typical of me in a stressful time.

Joy, I just read Jennifer's twitter update on Baby Stellan and I thought of you immediately. I can't imagine what she is going through, but I often think the same thing about you! You and Scott are in my thoughts and prayers often--I know that as a mom, losing a child has got to be the hardest, most confusing thing God could ever call a person to do. I pray that you will be able to get good, Godly counsel from those you are seeking for help, I pray that you will feel the love of Jesus so strongly, I pray that you are able to cherish the memories of Elli as sweet, sweet times! I'm "friends" with Marybeth Chapman on facebook also and think about them and what they must be going through. Praying so much for you!!!
