TWO YEARS AGO

Filed under: baby barden,bardenisms,just because — admin at 8:40 am on Thursday, March 17, 2011

Two years ago today I woke up to incredible pains at 4 am – knowing that today would be the day that Enoch left us. It was painful and emotional and one of the most difficult times of our lives.

We knew for a week that we would be miscarrying – but having it happen made it so real and so permanent.

I write today to remind myself of where we are. To encourage you with our miracle to keep hoping for yours. Remember – I am that person that found it hard to hope – I still do at times! It was hard to hope without getting my hopes up – cus they would be gone every month.

Here are the blogs that I wrote 2 years ago to help get out my feelings about what we were going through.

3.11.09 – COMFORT

3.12.09 – BEAUTY FROM PAIN

3.13.09 – PROMISES

3.22.09 – SPRING

4.21.09 – FINDING PEACE

We have a little more than 7 weeks until our expected due date with Fitzy – our miracle! I sit here and shake my head as I type – still in shock that there is a baby kicking me. That after two years of heartache we will be blessed with another child – this one in our arms!

I write to encourage you. I write to give you hope. I write to let you know I am praying for YOU! I am praying that God will give you peace – strength – comfort – and the ability to give up control – to let it in God’s hands.

We miss Enoch so much – but we rejoice in the knowledge that he is rejoicing with Jesus! He is safe and happy and beautiful! We will see him again someday!

We are so thankful for the chance to reach out to all of you that are struggling! We are so blessed to know all of you and pray for you!

Thank you so much for your support, love, and prayers you have showered us with on our journey to becoming parents!

I wanted to end this post with a promise of new life – a promise that God cares!

If God takes care of the flowers in the ground – He will take care of YOU!

I tear up reading these post, I didnt really know or understand what happened but I know that this child you will have in 7 weeks will be a blessing to all. I dont know what it is like to lose a child but I know what it is like to have a child and to know the unexplainable love I have for him, I want to take on any hurt he may experience in this world and would give my life for him. I will continue to pray for you and your family! 🙂 Once again congratulations!
