[untitled]

my heart is just breaking for CT and those precious kids and that little town. i have heavy boots. and i don't know what else to say. is there anything to say?

but i know my god is bigger than this.
"he will wipe every tear from their eyes. there will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away." revelation 21:4
"he heals the broken hearted and binds up their wounds." psalm 147:3
"blessed are those who mourn for they shall be comforted." matthew 5:4

i'm so sad this happened so close to christmas. it's not like there is an ideal time for this. but so close to christmas. ugh. it's like how people should just start being nice to each other. including me and my judgmental and grudge-holding self.


i'm also 25 weeks this week and i'm just thankful for this place in my life. as much as i feel guilty for being able to say that and live that, i'm so incredibly thankful and joyous. we have another ultrasound next week to remeasure the baby but if these kicks and hiccups say anything at all, i think baby is outgrowing the tiny little space i provide. i also bought this print today in honor of CT for the nursery. and i kind of want to get this one, too. i'm going to teach this babe all about loving our neighbors and being the change in this world. there is no other way.

    Those prints are perfect.

    And I agree, there is no other way.

    Happy twenty-five weeks, friend.

      I know, don't you love them? I like their subtleness. I didn't want something so incredibly sad hanging in the nursery. Because obviously.

    Your going to be such an incredible mother! I just know it, your baby will be that bright light that wonderful change in the world that we need. They will encourage and love others because you taught them how to do that at such a young age :-) love those verses!!

    I aslo bought some art, the LOVE one and the balloon one. Now I want the ones you bought ;-)

      Look who's talkin, mama! I sure hope so. It's kind of scary but I think I got those. ;]

      I really liked the "LOVE" one, too. I probably should just go by them all. Problem solved.
