Here I am..

Well here I am. I made is through the worst year of my life.

I am proud of my self. Looking back a NEVER thought I would make it this far, not with out my baby girl. It has been the worst year EVER, but I'm here. I'm still standing. Still loving my Princess. Still fighting to tread above water....but here.

I do feel different. I have so much Hope for the future. Jackson and Maddie are really helping me with that. Can you believe in just a little over 10ish weeks I will be holding our 2nd miracle. Our hope! I can....and I CAN'T WAIT!!! This weekend is my baby shower. I am so excited. I can not wait to see my family and friends.

I feel so much better since Friday is over. I know the hurt and the pain will never go away but I feel great knowing that I've made it this far. Every day that passes is a day closer to spending eternity with our girl. How lucky is that?

This post is a little all over the place but I just wanted to remember how I feel on this day... 1 year and 3 days after Maddie left us...Hopeful, happy, in love because a true love story never ends.....

(Thank you so much for all the heart warming e-mails. I am trying to respond as quick as I can)

Glad you are feeling hopeful and you are right if you can make it through that you can make it through anything. Any obstacle you face will be nothing compared to what you've already gone through.

Congrats on making it through this year and many more to come, being the strongest mommy you can be for that sweet angel in heaven and the blessing on the way. They sure are lucky and proud babies. My big brother was only on this earth for 6 weeks and 27 years later he is still such a huge part of our family. I know Maddie will always be watching over your family and y'all are soo blessed for that.

Kellie, I have been following your blog for the past year. I'm so sorry and can't even imagine what u have been through. I'm writing because I just finished reading a book by Mary Beth Chapman (Stephen Curtis Chapman's wife) "Choosing to see". Through the entire reading you just kept coming to my mind. If you haven't read this book, I highly recommend you do. There were several similarities between your story and hers and hope that in reading this, it could maybe help you in your healing.

Kellie, I dont know you but I often check your blog because yours is such a story of hope and of Gods faithfulness. God bless you and your husband for the incredible way Hes pulling you through, and bringing you this baby of promise. I pray joy and peace over your new baby and your family. Lots of love and prayers from Florida! x

I know it sounds soppy, but I'm glad that you are around. You have managed to be (or turn into) a sunshiney ray of hope for others while living through your storm, and allowed Maddie to touch so many people.
Go on getting stronger every day, and thank you for sharing everything you learned over the last year!
