Semi-Wordless
This is a year-old picture of my girls, but it always makes me smile, so I hope it does the same for you.
I’ll be holding my babies a little bit longer and a little bit tighter today after learning about Maddie Spohr.
My heart goes out to their family. I do not know them personally, but many of my friends do. Her story is both heart-breaking and touching. Please consider donating to the March of Dimes to help sick babies and their families.
UPDATE
Trying to do my part by donating a portion of my store sales to #maddie

it’s my phone pic so i can see it every day
and yes, incredibly sad
This is one of those times when I wish we all lived near each other so we could all just sit in a room and cry, surrounded by people who understand.
Give those girls another hug for me.

Yes. Hold ‘em close. And always, always, always tell them you love them.

You’re girls are beautiful and they made me smile. Thanks for sharing that.
And you are right, it is something no one should ever have to feel. Thanks again.

i’m glad they made you smile cause they do it for me every day
It’s always sad to hear about the loss of a little one. A sad reminder to never take what you have for granted. Your girls are beautiful.

never take them for granted – have to remind myself sometimes
There is no rhyme nor reason for this.
Angie [A Whole Lot of Nothing] Reply:
no – unfathomable
Wish you were closer. We could use some crying and hugging.

Angie [A Whole Lot of Nothing] Reply:
yes, and thanks
there is a lesson to be learned in even terrible things like this.
rainos last blog post..It’s meme time! I know you’re excited.
Angie [A Whole Lot of Nothing] Reply:
yes, and the lesson is to make every hug memorable
What a beautiful picture.
Hold them close to your heart. That love will see you through anything, even the darkest pain. I promise.
Angie [A Whole Lot of Nothing] Reply:
they certainly do – they make my whole life smile
I don’t personally know the Spohrs, either, but its nearly impossible to be part of this webby world and NOT be affected by their loss. I know I hugged my kids tighter and had more patience with them this weekend. Reading of a second baby passing today makes my heart sad, yet I know I’m very blessed.
I didn’t link in on your above Linky cuz I didn’t technically change my blog purple…but I added the button and a little purple ribbon to my header.
