I guess it's time to update a little bit. As you read in my previous post, Colton went home to be with Jesus on October 20th. On October 24th we had to say our final goodbyes. It was hard knowing that I wouldn't be seeing him the next day. Or getting woke up by his babbling and seeing him play with his feet and hands again. We miss him so much.
We have been staying at my brothers. I just don't like the idea of being home with an empty crib. People tell me how strong I am but truthfully I don't feel strong sometimes.
I know Colton is in a better place where there is no more pain. I'm sure he is up there having a good time with his grandpa and playing with all the children. I know we will get through it. And maybe God will bless us with another baby. I know that noone can ever replace Colton, but we would love him/her just the same and tell them all about their big brother.
Rest In Peace my little man. We love you very much!!!
I pray so much for that for you guys...not a "replacement" you're precious angel was way too special to be replaced, bout two loving, devoted, selfless parents like you guys sure should get to have another little one to love and care for.
ReplyDeleteAs to being strong, I admire you so much, I think God has given you a grace I cannot begin to fathom BUT please don't feel you HAVE to be strong! When you are feeling weak and vulnerable, please allow the people who love you to support you and be your strength.
continuing to pray often throughout the day for you guys.
Rachelle, I agree with the Taylors, there will not ever be a "replacement" to Colton! It would just be another addition and another chapter in the Haus story line. I continue to pray for you and Larry and every day. I cannot even begin to understand or fathom all the emotions that you go through in a day, week. I can only offer my words and support to you. It will never ease your pain completely and never ever be enough, but if you ever need me, you know where to find me.
