Hello!
I am a wife, married for 23 years and a mother to seven. I have two daughters and five sons, one of whom is in heaven.
We love the Lord are trying to bring our children up in the training and instruction of the Lord. (Ephesians 6:4)
We live in the Northeast in a cozy 100+ year old house. Welcome to my blog.

Passing of Time
I realized that this month marks 17 months since Caleb died. He was 17 months old when he died. He will now have been in Heaven longer than he was breathing here on earth. How can it be?
I know it was difficult for me to hit yet another one of those hard milestones in this journey called grief. Gone 8 months 2 days longer than he was here. It is amazing how happy you are in the 17 months they are here and just how hard the next 17 months go. It feels like heaven and hell on the same planet. I pray that you will find the peace and comfort that you need to get through the hard days and moments.
That had to have been a very hard realization! Every time you share a picture of him, my heart breaks in pieces for you. Please keep sharing Caleb with us... he's so precious Cheryl.
Cheryl, what a beautiful, beautiful boy.
