✨ Even the darkest night will end & the sun will rise tomorrow.✨
There is a unique kind of pain that comes from preparing a place in your heart for a child who never comes.
Losing a child is one of the greatest heartaches I’ve experienced in my short life, and we’ve had our fair share of trials in our young marriage.
The last few weeks were absolutely a challenge and there have been very dark nights, and yet... we’ve also seen SO MUCH LIGHT. ✨ Although I only experienced a small glimpse of a mother’s love for several short months, I know I loved that child with every fiber of my heart and soul.
And I sat there and felt silly for loving someone I had never met.... how could I completely give my heart, soul, time, energy and have my whole life revolve around something I’d never seen; something I had only FELT.
But then my mind inevitably turns to Christ, and I‘m reminded of my love for him and how again, I’ve given Him my whole heart, soul, time, energy and again, our whole life revolves around the gospel and yet.... I’ve also never physically met Him; it’s something I’ve only FELT.
And now I know a mother’s love is the closest thing one can ever get to truly understanding Christ’s love for us.
I’m so blessed to have the opportunity to bear children and create a family.
And again, I’m absolutely speechless from the strength that my sweet and loving husband has {AGAIN and AGAIN and AGAIN} shown me and our marriage in yet another challenge.
He’s my strength, he’s my light in these dark days, he’s my world!!! I couldn’t have made it through the last 3 years without him by my side. How was I so lucky to have you come stumbling into my life when you did, Rathen Jones?! God is SO GOOD. 🙌🏼✨ I’m so thankful for the Gospel, I’m thankful for my family, I’m thankful for the knowledge of His plan and understanding that I WILL see our child again one day, and oh what a sweet sweet reunion it will be.
For now, we are filled with love and peace... I know there will still be a few dark days ahead as we continue to heal, but always remember; Even in the darkest night will end & THE SUN WILL RISE. ☀️ ✨
Until then, our sweetheart.... Mommy and Daddy love you.
