Unimaginable

I am obsessed with reading blogs. I get on everyday and read my blogs I follow. There are a few in particular that I follow that I should never have started following. I say that in the fact that they are sad.What I mean by that is, some of these blogs involve loss, loss of a child. I don't know why I started reading them, I cant even begin to tell you how I came across them but what I do know is that I'm drawn to these peoples lives and there struggles. Is that weird??? For example there is a mother named Kellie http://kandjstaats.blogspot.com/ who's 4 month old daughter Maddie died of SIDS and her blog is about her daughters legacy and her struggles. OK, so my son isn't anywhere near the threat of SIDS anymore, so WHY do I read these blogs? Or there is a girl name Tiffany http://thebrokenroad-tiffany.blogspot.com/ whose daughter Ellie also past way from an undiagnosed spleen issue. It is soooo sad. I read these blogs and lift them up in prayer everyday and I think of them and how awful it must be to lose a child. I cant even imagine the grief. Maybe that's why I came across these blogs to lift them up in prayer, because God know they need a lot of prayer and support. Then I think maybe there is a reason I read these blogs. (I mean heck I don't even know these people but I feel like I do.) Maybe its because its makes me appreciate my family and my son just a little more then I would have if not for these people and there loss. It definitely has made me Cherish Every Moment!!.
There a few others I follow as well. You can check them out on my page and see for yourself why I am so drawn to them.  I hope and pray with ALLLLLL my might that I NEVER have to know there struggle. That is my one true fear. I'm sure as some of you parents know that fear I speak of. Its so unimaginable.
So today, hold your son, daughter, husband, wife, or loved one and tell them you love them and really live in the moment.

Until next blog...
...Cherish Every Moment!!
