Twenty years ago today, we opened our hearts all the way up to love a new little bundle of joy.
No reservations.
No hesitations.
Our arms were eager to hold her.
Our lips were filled with kisses for her sweet little cheeks,
our precious Adrienne Annabeth Nischan.
We didn’t know this gift would only be ours for 6 1/2 weeks, but we did know this:
She was a gift.
I don’t think a minute went by in her short little life when she wasn’t fully aware of our love for her.
And for that I am thankful today.
Praying you find reasons to be thankful today even if your heart has been broken.
Happy birthday, Adrienne!
We will always be thankful for the gift of YOU!
And one day, one glorious day, we will see you in Heaven, and every one of our tears will be exchanged for songs of joy!
Until then, know you are loved by so many here!
In December of 2007 as our youngest son, Nick, was fighting brain cancer, I began to blog. Writing provided a way for me to release all of my questions, fears, and doubts. It also allowed me to share the ups and downs of Nick's journey with people who were praying for him all over the world. When Nick went Home in November of 2008, my blog became my way of searching for God in the midst of my deep heartache. My heart was broken and grief brought to the surface every emotion imaginable. Being able to release those emotions through my writing brought a sense of purpose to my pain. Having already walked the road of grief in 1992 when we lost our daughter to SIDS, I knew I needed a way to keep from falling into a pit of depression and despair. I had walked close to the edge of a bottomless pit when we lost our daughter,and I knew I couldn't let myself get that close to the edge again. This blog has been and continues to be my tiny corner of the world where I can share My Heart as I journey through God's Word.......thus the name........ My Heart His Words. Thank you for taking time to share life with me. If we do not meet while here on earth, I look forward to hearing all about your life when we reach our final destiny.........Heaven! Email me anytime at 
How heartbreaking to see that little beauty. Thank the Lord that He has His way to help you heal or what a terrible state you would be in after that precious loss in your life. I remember when my friend’s son was killed. At his service his dad told us that our children are only on loan to us and God can call them home even if we don’t want it. He told us to love our children like there was no tomorrow. That has always stayed with me. I know your heart is heavy today, Adrienne is in a safe place. Hugs to you, Sandy
