Rebecca Phoebe was born silent on April 25, 2008. At the doctor's, I found no heartbeat and knew that while in labor, my angel was taken back. This blog is here for the benefit of me to write the tender things of my heart. It is also here for those that need to know they are not alone in whatever they have been called upon to bear.

If you are new to the blog, please start with " My Story".

An update

I guess I kind of let that last post hanging a little bit... Sorry about that! When I visited my family it was crazy but wonderful! I did have plenty of tears but not the kind that I was expecting. What I shared with my sisters when they came to be my angels on earth is not something that I can really explain. A bond has been forged that can never be broken. They were with me every step of the awful horrible way. One helped me say goodbye to my baby's earthly body, another did so many loads of laundry, watched my kids, grieved AND held me up all at the same time! They both filled places in me that couldn't have been filled any other way.

My trip was a great healing, learning, loving trip that filled a lot of anxiety that I didn't know was built up. As I began to relax little by little, I was able to let me grief come and go as often as needed. My sister who wrote the poem to the right had always felt it was a song. For the last few months she composed and wrote the most gorgeous song ever. The only one she has ever written. I don't know how my sister-in-law or my sister even got to the end of the song when they performed it for us, but I do know this. Not only was the Spirit very strong in the room, but I felt my daughter's spirit very strongly as well.

What a blessing it was to reconnect with my family. I wish we had all members there to reconnect but time and circumstances will someday allow that, I'm sure.

Thank you for all of your love and support. I can still feel your prayers and thank you for them!!
