I wish to thank all those that have sent us cards and flowers. Thanks to those who call to just make sure that we are ok. Thanks to those that gave us a firm hug or rub on the back. I wanted to write this to all who have been there for us. I will mention a few of those special people that have helped us. All of you played an important role in our recovery and don't think that if I don't mention it here that it wasn't important to us.
Our Family has provided the foundation for us to be strong. They let us know that we are loved. They give us support when needed. We were first time parents and they were first time grandparents. We lost our son and them their grandson. To them I say he will always be GRAND to me.
Our Church family has been unbelievable. Mack Hanna and Brenda Russell who were two of the first people to help us after we found out that our child might not be with us. Giving us comfort in the darkest of time, not knowing what will happen. Our life group, who has had members come by and visit us and bring us dinner so we didn't have to think about where our next meal will be.
Our friends, who are family to us, struggle knowing that they can't take our troubles away. They call us to make sure we had a good day and maybe a laugh or two. They help us with small chores and give us encouraging words. Letting us know that they will be there for us, that we are not alone.
Our Co-Workers and Clients, that breaks through the walls of work. They let us know that we are not alone and that Joshua was missed by all not only those that were family. Ninth District Opportunity Bookkeeping staff and Lanier Textile are like extended Family. They have encouraged us through this process and given us support. Even though work can hide the sorrow of the loss they let me know that it is ok and they are there for me as well.
Our angels we meet, who gives us a feeling that He is there with us. The waitress who sits down with us during dinner and smiles and tells us that we are strong and that there will be other days and those other days will be better. The pharmacist who stops what he was doing in the back room to personally help me when I was sick and letting me know that he is sorry for my loss and to give me a warm feeling on contentment through our conversation.
Thanks to all of you. God has showed me that we are made in his image. We have experienced His greatness through all of you. His Love, His Warmth, His Greatness all has come to us through you.
