Day 15- remember

I just unpacked my personal journal that I kept up with very poorly in my transition from Singleness to married. My last entry was 3-20-13 and part of my entry said 

"This baby needs a strong mom, I am not strong." Referring to that hormonal/emotional transitional time in my life and how I felt spiritually.

Thank you, Ember, for showing me my strength. For showing me there's strength in weakness, strength in letting others care for you. Thank you for helping me realize so much more than I ever did before that I need Jesus. 

Your daddy and I are lighting a candle tonight to remember you. It's the candle that we got in your special box in the hospital. we haven't lit it yet, today will be the first time. 

You have shown us so much and grown us in such strange ways that I never anticipated growing in. We miss you every day but know that you're happy and just where you're supposed to be. Love you, our spark burning low.
