Heartache

We had been waiting with joyful anticipation the day we would share the good news on here that Gabriella was going to be a big sister.  The day was fast approaching as we had finally been able to share the news in person with most of our immediate family. Unfortunately our hearts are replaced with a feeling of emptiness and sorrow today as our second child, at eleven-and-a-half weeks, was called back home to Jesus this morning.

Please keep our family in your thoughts and prayers as we struggle through this difficult time of loss.

"Instead of the wind he hears the sound of angels singing before My throne. Instead of the beauty that passes he sees everlasting Beauty – he sees My face. He was created and lived a short time so that the image of his parents imprinted on his face may stand before Me as their personal intercessor. He knows secrets of heaven unknown to men on earth. He laughs with a special joy that only the innocent possess. My ways are not the ways of man. I create for My Kingdom and each creature fills a place in that Kingdom that could not be filled by another. He was created for My joy and his parents’ merits. He has never seen pain or sin. He has never felt hunger or pain. I breathed a soul into a seed, made it grow and called it forth."  ~Mother M. Angelica
