loss

I finally feel like I can write this without exploding. This weekend I had a miscarriage and we lost our baby. Jon is the sweetest husband alive. He has supplied me with unending support, chocolate, blankets, head PR person and girly movies. He wanted this baby as much as I did, so we've been doing just a lot of crying, cuddling, praying and sleeping(on my part, with him watching Wyatt and letting me sleep). Wyatt just wonders why I'm on the couch so much. His baby sweetness is such a balm to my heart. My family has been here daily too. I love my family. I've been praying a lot and am so glad I have a God who understands and listens. Jesus is the "song of my life" and I will keep singing it even when I hurt. Thank you to my friends who have been praying for me and checking on me. I love you guys.

I'll be signing off for a little while, but I'll be back.....

I am a friend of Tyne's... I've suffered the loss of two babies through miscarriage. I want you to know how deeply sorry I am for your loss. Know that my prayers are for much peace in the midst of your grief.

You know I'm here for you if you need me. I am definitely praying for you, but I don't want to be a nuisance, so please let me know, either with a call or a message or email if you want to talk. God is in control, please remember that.

If anyone is available between 9-10am on Saturday, I will be unavailable to give hugs out to my wife due to me need to mow the lawn. Taking applications. Thanks for your prayers and support for us during this time! We serve a mighty God who's love is unending!

Hi Cousin, I haven't had much access to email lately but Jeff and I have been praying for you since we heard. I love you dearly and only wish I was closer so that I could pray with you and cry with you and hug you...

I am so sorry for you and Jon. I'll be praying along with everyone else, that God's overflowing peace and love will permeate your lives more than ever before. I am so glad you have some friends to comfort you in TX. Know that I'm stretching my arms from CA with a hug.

I am so sorry. I wish that I was there to hug and pray with both of you. God has a reason for everything, though we do not understand, we find out in his time why we must have these trials.

I love you!

Praying you will experience peace that passes all understanding. Keep your chins up and your heads bowed. The bible says, the Lord your God is with you. He rejoices over you with singing. Take comfort in His lullaby and take as much time as You need. Peace & Love in Christ, ~Whitney
