Nothing and<br />no one can ever take that away from you.<br />I am so sorry for your loss of your sweet Hope. Jesus...bring joy to Amy's heart today in a special way that will ease her<br />grief and renew her strength.<br /><br />xo from a mom and grandma who cares about you and hasn't forgottenAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1620800315071767228.post-16039615984060604392013-08-19T15:16:24.747-06:002013-08-19T15:16:24.747-06:00Today is the one year anniversary of losing our li...Today is the one year anniversary of losing our little one. I am glad to say with God's strength, it is not less sad, just more bearable. Our little daughter named her new little doll that she received for her birthday "Baby Hope", too. Your little Hope has had an impact on our family.

Try to go easy on yourself as you figure out the new normal, the new you after an experience like yours. <br /><br />I find rituals have really helped me through difficult days or anniversaries of the our loss. I write my son's name in the sand, I write him letters, I light candles, I take my dog to the dog park because it helps to make her happy, I collect hearts. None of these things will bring my son back, but they bring small moments of peace or comfort. <br /><br />I hope you find what comforts you on this journey.<br /><br />Much love from Chile,<br />Jennjmassdinihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09783806316921382699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1620800315071767228.post-19197811271412603212013-08-19T02:34:43.443-06:002013-08-19T02:34:43.443-06:00Amy,

Today I was listening to this new Shane & Shane song.<br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qyUPz6_TciY <br /> I thought of you, not because of John Piper's comments about loss, but because it's so evident from your blog that you know the suffering your family has gone through is not meaningless. Thank you for sharing your journey with us, many we all be so encouraged to seek the meaning in hardship. <br />Blessings, <br />Brittany Vine Brittanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09147612517261448033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1620800315071767228.post-69030524573759791712013-08-18T22:20:00.988-06:002013-08-18T22:20:00.988-06:00When Eva first died I counted the time without her...When Eva first died I counted the time without her in hours, then days, then weeks, then months and now as I have just passed the two year mark of her death the 15th is still a hard day every month. She was born on Oct 15th and died exactly 10 months later on August 15th. <br /><br />I will always remember your little Miss Hope. Her name means so much to me. She died on my son's fourth birthday. And I followed her story with trepidation, while grieving Eva but hoping for another outcome for you. <br /><br />Also want to add here that I have found the return home from holidays exhausting as well. And the return to home without Eva hard too. That is something that has gotten easier to bear in the last little while. The memory of her playing on our floor is not as fresh as it was two years ago.<br /><br />Sending you love, and strength and praying for you.<br />EmEmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11910371746336686970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1620800315071767228.post-90628547356990195562013-08-18T17:13:36.827-06:002013-08-18T17:13:36.827-06:00I don't want to intrude on your grief.

Each time I read your recent blogs I think not only of you and yours, I also think of all others in my circle who have lost loved ones. Each is at a different stage of recovery, at least on the surface. I am sure, however, that there is a well of sadness that will never disappear. I do believe that this well will change from a roiling mass to a calmer pool. And your belief in a much higher power will help this happen.
