Why I am writing....

I have never been a very big writer so the thought of "blogging" seemed overwhelming.  Then I came to a realization.  I want more than anything to keep Jacob's spirit alive.  I want more than anything for Colin and I pray future children and my husband to be able to read this someday and smile at the memories, remember our very loved son, Jacob but also to know that although our family has gone through great loss, we also have great love for each other and that we were able to go on and I hope and pray, find joy in our everyday lives and also in the memory of our "sweet baby Jake" as Russ always called him.  I want Colin and our future children to know how much we love them and how much we love our family...and that Jake will always be a part of that as well. I will forever have one part of my heart on the earth and one part in heaven. A dear friend said...a journey through life, love and loss.
