fathers day
i keep thinking about fathers day. since having Jorai and learning from her i have so much more admiration of parents. of everyone really. but mostly of parents. i can more deeply understand my own parents. see their point of view more and where they were coming from. but mostly i've been aching about this sunday and what it will mean to steve. i pray that Jesus will be standing right next to him and that Jorai will be holding his hand all day.
he would have been such a wonderful father. i would have loved to watch him sing her to sleep and teach her to read and ride a bike. i know all these dreams are silly. they'll never happen with Jorai. but i hope someday they will happen. i pray that someday we'll get pregnant again and become parents to a healthy, happy child. i would love to see my amazing husband be a father. he is the best man i know.

In a previous post you were looking for suggestions on how to spend some time after returning to work part time. Have you considered Ele's Place? It's a place for grieving children and their families to go and learn to heal. While you're in a different situation, your compassion (as evidenced by this post about Steve and Father's Day) coupled with your ability to express your grief so honestly and your obvious love of children may be of benefit to those families. Just a suggestion...
