As the days pass our family is beginning to return to more of a daily routine. I’m gradually regaining my energy and know that by this time next week I’ll be back at work. I spent a bit of time today logging into all the courses I’m teaching this semester to update my students online. […]

The last two days have seemed to have escaped me quickly and have been filled with the expected roller coaster of emotions that come with all that has happened. But I promised I’d soon have happier moments to share, and though today was certainly not free of the emotions we’ve been going through the last […]

So I spent part of today resting and part of today having some fun (and experiencing a little frustration at the same time) setting up the beginnings of my new blog. So from today forward you can visit my new blog for personal, professional, educational, creative, and definitely photography related updates. The changes were made […]

I’ve been home from the hospital for a few hours now and finally finding the energy to update everyone. I send apologies to all of you who have been waiting for a phone call or some type of message of how surgery went today. As you might imagine, today was a whirlwind of a day […]

I just wanted to let you know you and your family have prayers going up from me.
Take care, rest well, and let God handle the rest.
I find myself awake once again in the midst of the night while most others are resting and while I’m left just a few hours before surgery wondering so much still. There’s a part of me that feels as though this is some awful dream that I just wish I’d wake up from. A part […]

Will keep you and your family in prayer.
Our human minds cannot comprehend the reasoning of this, but there is hope Amanda! I am amazed at your willingness to keep on despite circumstances, if you/your family need anything feel free to let me know.
Check out the song Shadows by David Crowder Band should help out too. “Life is full of light and shadows, oh the joy and oh the sorrow…”
Wishing you find the peace that passes all understanding,

Dear Father, receive this beautiful child into Your loving arms, embrace it with love so pure it that will bring life and joy and peace. Wrap these same arms of love around Amanda, bring comfort where there seems no possibility of being comforted, and peace, and healing from the pain. Bless her, Lord, with the knowing that You are there, that You will never leave her, and that Your strength is made perfect in her time of weakness. May she rest and find solace in the warmth of your bosom. Bless her, and her entire family, Lord, with Your love. In the name of the only one who is able, Jesus.
Your sweet words so touched my heart. I pray that God will give you His peace and that he will take aways the pain of loss that is so heavy upon you right now. Please take comfort in the knowledge that the sweet little one you carried knew he/she was loved totally by his sweet Mom. Allow yourself to be weak – we Cumbie women think we have to be strong all the time but we don’t. Lean on God tell Him that you are hurting beyond belief and allow Him to hold you in His loving arms.
