I’ll never forget 12/12/12.
I was sitting in a meeting at work as I was receiving texts from my mom about David’s approaching entry into this world.
This was our family’s first addition since losing Nick, and our hearts were all ready to share love with a new little person.
Maura was in labor in room twelve of the hospital and 12 o’clock was quickly approaching.
I was thinking to myself, “What if he is born at 12 o’clock in room 12 on 12/12/12 exactly twelve days before his due date?!?
Wouldn’t that be awesome!?!?!
Twelve o’clock passed by, but the texts from my mom were coming quickly; and my co-worker and I looked at the clock and both thought the same thing!
Is this little guy going to join us at 12:12?!?!?
Sure enough!!!!!!!!!!!
With no help from the doctors by stalling or rushing his arrival,
David became part of our lives at that very minute!!
7-12s from David suddenly joined our already incredibly significant 7-11 from Nick!!
Ever since that moment, David has been such a gift to our family.
David has taught us just how precious life is all over again.
He’s been the topic of so many conversations!
He keeps us all laughing!
He brings out the best in all of us!!
I honestly can’t imagine life without our little Weasel!
I just had to take a few minutes this morning to say,
“Happy birthday, David!!
Uncle Tim and Tamaw love you so much!
We can’t believe you are already two years old!”
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!
