THANK YOU Ladies!!!

Click HERE for my guest spot on Creative Cutter Room!


Hey All,

Today's post is a post to say THANK YOU to my DT sisters from Hiding In My Craft Room. AJ from AJ Scrapbooking & Cards sent me an email early this morning. I opened her email and was INSTANTLY moved to tears! I guess I should go over why I was moved to tears....

I know some of you may not of seen my post about my Angel Babies. I have 4 of them. Sadly, my 4th one happened just a few weeks ago. I have been trying SO hard to keep it as far in the back of my mind as I can, but its easier said then done. I mean, that was my baby to I loved from the MOMENT I knew I was going to have them.  My husband has been SO caring and REALLY trying to be there for me! I thought throwing myself into my day job and my crafty job and house hunting would keep my mind from crying over my angel babies. It has to a point, but there's that moment before I close my eyes at night that I WISH I was still caring my little blessing still. But, this is where AJ and my other sisters, Angela, Jennie, and Velma, come into my life in a HUGE way!

AJ's email this morning certainly brought a HUGE smile to my face!

What Makes A Mother I thought of you and closed my eyes
And prayed to God today
I asked, "What makes a Mother?"
And I know I heard him say
A Mother has a baby
This we know is true
But, God, can you be a mother
When your baby's not with you?

Yes, you can he replied
With confidence in his voice
I give many women babies
When they leave it is not their choice
Some I send for a lifetime
And others for the day
And some I send to feel your womb
But there's no need to stay.

I just don't understand this God
I want my baby here

He took a breath
and cleared his throat
And then I saw a tear
I wish I could show you
What your child is doing Here

If you could see your child smile
With other children and say
"We go to earth to learn our lessons
of love and life and fear,
but My mommy loved me so much
I got to come straight here!"
I feel so lucky to have a Mom who
had so much love for me
I learned my lessons very quickly
My Mommy set me free.
I miss my Mommy oh so much
But I visit her each day
When she goes to sleep
On her pillow is where I lay
I stroke her hair and kiss her cheek
And whisper in her ear
"Mommy, Please don't be sad today
I'm your baby and I am here"

So you see my dear sweet one
Your children are okay
Your babies are here in My home
And this is where they'll stay
They'll wait for you with Me
Until your lessons there are through
And on the day that you come home
they'll be at the gates waiting for you

So now you see
What makes a Mother
It's the feeling in your heart
It's the love you had so much of
Right from the very start
