I have not posted to this in a while because I have been so busy with Emma's site. I think I am done for a few days, and it has come along well. It begins here: Emma

Meagan:

My heart was completely yours while I was reading your post. So you have deep, personal knowledge of how difficult it was for my daughter. This birth defect is not an uncommon thing even though lots of folks aren't aware of that. I suspect my daughter's was caused by Darvon. I had really bad headaches from childhood and I was taking the Darvon when I didn' know I was pregnant. Just a suspicion of mine, though.

I am so thankful that you have had such a good surgeon and dentist to help you with all of this. It makes a very big difference, doesn't it? Hugs to you, girl! Lots of 'em.

Nikki+2:

I think your heart is very like mine, girl. Just full to overflowing with compassion. I see you.

It shows more than you may know in most all of your posts.

Grannyb:

That sweet baby is so blessed to be loved by so many peole. He has a lot to go through, but when you have someone who loves you taking the journey with you it is so much better. God bless him! Give him hugs and kisses from me. And God bless you!! He will give you just what you need exactly when you need it to help this little person along.

Villette:

Thank you so much! I hate to tell you this, but my hero days are over.

I got to looking the other day and that big ol' W(onderwoman) that used to be on my chest has faded away and I have nothing left but age spots now.

I am seriously looking for my rocking chair these days and the one requirement for that chair is that it fit at my computer desk.

Hey! You know I love ya, girl!!

Sookie:

I don't know what your personal wounds are but I do know this....all of us humans have had and will have many more times, our own personal crosses to bear. Some can be so heavy we feel that we must surely collapse. I know I have felt that way more than once. But He always gave me the strength to go on.

I am sorry I made you cry. I know how hard it is 'diggin up bones'...I resisted writing this post for a couple of days but I was so affected by little Emma's plight that I felt compelled. I will admit I was sorry as soon as I hit that submit button. But you know...it really hasn't been all that bad. You all are so wonderful and kind, it makes me feel sorta glad in my heart. So thank you!

wemple2:

Thank you so much! I have certainly become so aware of compassionate hearts by all of this. I am thankful. May He richly bless you for having such a caring heart.

Shanatink:

Thanks for the hug! I love hugs. Now bring the baby to me because I really love baby hugs the best! I absolutely adore babies. They give love so unconditionally! She is certainly a beauty. I have to smile every time I get a glimpse of her.

Panama69:

Thank you girl! you are so right you know! I am a walking testament to His love. I am thankful that His mercy is new every morning.

MyPeanutAbbyGra:

Thank you ever so much! Here's one for you:

MissPinkBarbie:

Thank you for your kind words. I truly do appreciate them.
