5 Years Ago
As the candle flicker, images of your tiny body run through my mind.. I smile through the tears because I’m forever grateful for the moment. It was some moments longer than others had. We had 26-27 days! Even as I write this I can reflect on something I read just the other day. It said imagine Jesus holding your child’s hand. I vividly see this 5 year old boy clinging to the hand of Jesus and I know that He has you. Even better He has your father and I too! That’s the peace that passeth all understanding.
My goal for this year is to complete your scrap book.
Always a part of my heart!
Forever

Happy 4th Birthday in Heaven, Isaiah
1. Isaiah.... The Beginning
The name Isaiah is a powerful name. It's Hebrew meaning is "the Lord is generous; Salvation of the Lord; and God's helper." "People with this name tend to be idealistic, highly immaginative, intuitive, and spiritual. They seek after spiritual truth and often find it. They tend to be visionary and may inspire others".
Isaiah you are my inspiration. From the moment I knew of your conception, you changed my life in a way that I will never return. Though you are not with me now, I still press towards what I was to become. You inspire me to be a better person to love more and be an effective witness of the love of Christ even when our human side can not perceive it.
Vividly, I remember the first chapter of your life. I remember telling your dad of your presence. From day 1 we were ready :0) I even was able to capture it on video as he declared that "God did it". Indeed, you are my miracle from God. I'm glad I got to know you, to see you, to hold you. I'm glad we did not terminate when the doctors asked us to. Behold, what we would have missed out on. In all things give thanks, for some did not get that which we did get. To see the fruit that was growing and developing inside of me. To be able to put a face with the flutters and heartburn that I felt within - lol. As I said all along the way, All is well!
