IN THE ARMS OF HIS LOVE

Today Steve gave me this gift.
He cried when he first saw it.
He knew I needed to have it.
He was right.
I cried too.

What a gorgeous and meaningful picture. I was unaware that there was a day set aside for pregnancy and infant loss. Thanks for letting the blog world know! :0)

What a tender picture! This past day after mother's day (of all days), my sister-in-law went through the same experience (18 weeks instead of 20). I think I may try and get her a copy of this as well. Thank you for sharing and for letting me know that there is an awareness day for all who have lost. You're incredible, Becky!

How beautiful...the print, the thought, the sweetness. Who is the artist?

What a beautiful thought and beautiful picture. The Lord does care for all of our children and special care of those he wanted returned to Him. What a wonderful picture for Steve to give the both of you. Love, Aunt Shirley

I love the picture, what a sweet gift.
I reflected today on my pregnancy losses, thanks for the reminder.
I am not sure why I had to go through the pain and trials of losing babies to miscarriage. But, I do know that God's plan has always been better than my own. I learned so much each time, and feel that I am stronger and a better person because of it. And I know that my adopted children are suppose to be in my family, and that it was God's plan that made it happen.

I hope you will feel peace evertime you see that picture.
((hugs))
