I thought about breaking this post up into each part and then to be honest thought No, because I would end up putting up three or four posts and I just don’t have that writing feeling or energy today to fill out the posts to the level I like to do so.
So first for those of you that are willing to pray for others, could you please add my mother to your daily prayer list, she went into the hospital two days ago with what appears to be heart attack like things, and while its not sure what is happening, but lots of tests over the last two days and many more to come are planned to try and figure out what is happening, so I am open to prayer for general well-being, I would ask that you also consider adding in that the right test or the right doctor cross’s her path to give her the help that she needs, please an thanks!
Today is a Ground Hog Day and that means the offical slide towards spring and I am happy for the longer daylight and the fact that the weather will get better all month but today is also a sad day for me, as its my dearly departed daughter Maeve’s birthdate, some years are better then others, and I am having a slightly sad feeling of the day but overall, I am going to have a better day, because I have already decided that I am not openning her box this year. Some year’s I do and some year’s I don’t, it just depends on what I need. You see in her box are her little hand and foot prints, her lock of hair, baby cloths, her little stuffies and many other things from her very special few days with us.
For those of you that have little ones, give them a extra hug and kiss today, take a few min to reflect on just how lucky you are and for those that have lost children or grandchilden, my heart goes out to you and may you find a way to spend time with something that comfort’s your soul, be it prayer, time with your purrpot in your lap or a full body snuggle with your hound or watching new lambs bop and leap with joy.
Just another Day on the Farm 
I pray the full blessings of 1 Peter 2:24 “by whose stripes ye were healed.” for your mother. Keep looking up!
I’m sorry for your sad day, sounds like your daughter was a young lady who had a big effect on those around her for the few days she was able to spend with them. Some have more effect in a few days than others in a full span. Lovely Husband lost his Dad this week, after a long illness and at a good age, a normal and natural end of life, but still so sad. So we’re are hugging each other tight here. Hugs to you and yours.
My prayers and thoughts are with you. You mentioned your mom’s hospital visit so briefly on the phone that I didn’t realize it was serious.
I find there are two ways to deal with the visible reminders of our losses – either have them out of sight, or have them right there daily so that the pain gradually lessens. There are some photos which I kept stumbling upon when I’d go through boxes, and I’d be a wreck for hours. Finally I put them out where I’d see them all the time.
Thinking about you.
Stopped dead and asked for help for your Mom.
Wishing you loads of leaping lambs and hound snuggle.
Hope, love, peace. xo Deb
Sending our love and prayers for the two M’s, and by the way, I also have many reasons to be thankful that our paths crossed so many years ago. FG and DH, know that we hold you dear, even still.
Thank you everyone for your prayers and good wishes, we are in a holding pattern at the moment while we wait for test results and then its one step at a time.
