I was reading some of my favorite blogs yesterday when I came to Rocks in My Dryer. She had a list of different blogs that had posts that interested her. I decided to click on the one that said "A Letter to My Daughter" by Bring theRain. She said you may want to bring the Kleenex, so I decided to go and read it. I love a good story that needs kleenex. I was not prepared for what I read.
I have so much respect and awe for people who can put things in writing when they are in the middle of a life altering experience. This woman had given birth to her fourth daughter, "Audrey Caroline" knowing that she was not intended to stay long in this world. The story of her pregnancy and birth is amazing. Her love and faith in God is even more so. Her letter to her daughter was so touching, that I cry now even posting about it.
But the story didn't end there. She has recently posted about losing her nephew, they believe, to SIDS. Their family is again dealing with the loss of a new life. Little Luke was only a few months old. It has only been seven weeks since they buried Audrey. Yet once again, it is their faith in God that is getting them through.
Please pray for this family. Pray for the parents, the siblings and the friends that will support them. Pray that God will continue to give them all that they need to get through this terribly sad time.

It is a coincidence that I found this exact site on Saturday morning and spent some time reading their story. I found them through a different website and was attracted to the name. What a story of sadness, inspiration, faith, and courage.
Thank you for linking that story on your post. I had a good cry (at work) and will keep their family and families in their same situation in my prayers.
