    Beautiful reminder…
    and so true.

    Thank you for posting this.
    Cheers to you—and to us all.

    All of it is brilliant. I especially love this part of #9: “Consider this: there are no problems, only situations that either require our attention or they don’t.” Keep doing what you are doing and by doing this you are helping us all.

      I second this. I will be thinking about “situations that require my attention” a lot…and removing my attention from places it is not needed, such as other people’s business, or things a higher power is responsible for.

    At first i thought that picture was of eli but then i saw the shirt. Its me. Come on mom, that picture is terrible I could have done a whole makeup job and made my mascara run! It would have looked so much more real. Geez. *Eye roll* 😀
    Btw I was trying to fall asleep in that shot. Or looking at the ants..i did both of those. lol

    Thanks again.

    On a side note, of course we all miss your posts when you take a breather but I would prefer you to post what is ‘real’ for you at the time. That is the main draw to your writing!

    Enjoy the joy

    thanks. my daughter was stillborn 2 weeks ago and this post was good to read.

    • Cheri B says:

      Andrea, I’m so sorry for your loss. I’ll be hoping and praying for you.

    • Beth says:

      I am so sorry, Andrea. When I said, “I don’t actually think it matters how stuck we are — whether so deep in a hole we hardly remember breaking ground to begin…,” I admit, I’ve yet to be dealt a blow so achingly close to the heart. May your healing be full of love and your heart forever expanded.

    • Holly says:

      I am so very sorry for your terrible loss. My heart goes out to you – whoever you are, where ever you are.

    • HeronSister says:

      Big hugs to you, Andrea, mama to mama.
