Best Friends.

(Originally Posted May 23, 2009)The Morning | A Community of hope for women finding joy after infant loss. | Ashlee Proffitt | Aaden SageI am so excited to say that our best friends are coming to visit us in our new home Tampa, Florida. Aaron's sister, Amy and her husband Jon are coming, completely on a whim I might add, to visit us for the long weekend. We are so excited to see them we can hardly stand it. Aaron actually had a dream last night that we forgot to pick them up from the airport. We can't wait to catch up in person about everything that has been going on over the past eight weeks... we all know that phones and internet are great but let's be honest, it's not quite the same as seeing your best friends in person.So, they will be here in a few hours and I am anxiously awaiting their arrival. I have done a good job keeping myself busy for the last two days since we found out they were coming. I think "being busy" supresses some of the anxiety I feel about seeing my sweet nephew for the first time in eight weeks. I know that the majority of you who read this blog are people of prayer and I (selfishly... I apologize) just want to ask for a favor... if you could just pray for God's strength and love and grace to encompass our family. Aaden and Camden are only days apart in age... and I am preparing myself for some bit of pain when I see just how much he has grown and changed in the last eight weeks. I can only imagine how Aaden would have grown by now. I often plead with God to let me see him... I want to know what he would be doing now... Would he be crawling and into everything? Would he be smiling like crazy? What would his little personality be like? Would he be like his brother? Or would they be complete opposites? I am overwhelmed at our loss... and right now I am so very sad that Camden will never know his best friend here on earth...The Morning | A Community of hope for women finding joy after infant loss. | Ashlee Proffitt | Aaden SageI just ask that you would pray for our family, that God would continue to provide healing and that He would bring us all closer to Him and closer to each other.
