Ecclesiastes 7:1 says "A good name is better than precious ointment; and the day of death than the day of one's birth."
Today was better than tomorrow.

Remembering Jakin's Healing
One year ago today, Jakin's heart was healed and he went home to Heaven. I've just re-read my post from that day and I only kind-of remember writing it. I have no doubt God was carrying us through those days. It's a little harder today than it was then, in a way. I don't know what I should be doing today. I'm not sure how much more I can even elaborate, words are kind of escaping me today. So I will just leave it quoting myself from my post I wrote one year ago today...

I remember that post. It was so beautiful and heart wrenching at the same time.
Thinking of you and yours........
Remembering Jakin with you & keeping you in my prayers.
I'm sorry I came upon this late, but I will still pray for you.
Lord, as I sit here in the early morning quiet, I lift up Mattie and her aching Mother's heart to you. I wish I knew what was best to ask for from you. As I type this prayer, the word "peace" comes to mind. Her heart seems understandably stirred-up, and I want her to feel soothed. So I pray you give her peace today and for the days that follow, the holidays.
Amen.
I nominated you for The Liebster Award. I have quietly been following your blog, but I pray for your family quite often. You are such a strong woman! I am so sorry for your losses, and hope that you found peace and healing in remembering Jakin's Healing this year.
I love the way that you speak of Jakin's healing. Beautiful words of love, truth, and faith from your mama-heart. Please know that Jakin is remembered...
I just read your post on Small Bird Studios--what a great idea to remember Jakin and Shyla!
