truth be told

I feel paralyzed this morning. We're supposed to leave in 15 mins to go to the funeral home and I can't even get myself to get dressed, never mind showered. The thought of picking out a baby casket makes me want to puke. I don't want to do this. I wish I would wake up and find this was just a nightmare - it certainly feels like one. God, give me strength

  2. I'm feeling pretty helpless these days. I would like nothing better than to wrap my arms around you like I did many years ago and say "don't worry, honey I'll make it all better"
    Love, Mom

  3. Tiny Footprints on a Mother's Heart
    By: La Belle Dame Sans Merci"~John Keats 1819
    When a baby arrives,
    be it for a day, a month, a year or more,
    or perhaps only a sweet flickering moment-
    the fragile spark of a tender soul
    the secret swell of a new pregnancy
    the goldfish flutter known to only you-
    you are unmistakeningly changed...
    the tiny footprints left behind on your heart
    bespeak your name as Mother.

    My prayers are with you and your familly,
    -Lisa Williams-
