You are all so blessed...Jonah is such a sweetheart. You are all so blessed to have each other as a family- though my heart aches for you that you have to be separated right now :(. <br />Thank you for recording these memories. Last night was rough for me as a "new mom" and I was feeling ungrateful and frustrated. I'm so glad I found your blog. You inspire me to embrace my role, even during hard moments, and cherish the privilege of being a mother. Sending love to you and Jordan. beckshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03989257563444730404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7667593032852808578.post-20779542400205377912012-01-25T21:32:00.211-08:002012-01-25T21:32:00.211-08:00Julie-
I am the writer of the Blog His Struggle, ...Julie-<br /><br />I am the writer of the Blog His Struggle, My Struggle. I saw your blog as a traffic source and I have spent a significant amount of time, late at night, reading your story. <br /><br />The name of your blog is one of my favorite song lyrics. I think of it often, especially now that I hide in my heart my own sorrows. <br /><br />I'm so sorry about the loss of your little darling. So sorry.<br /><br />You are a beautiful writer[& woman.] I loved what you said about your job interview, that it's too bad we can't put our best moments as a mother on our resume, because they are what make us. <br /><br />I look forward to more of your uplifting words. Take care blogger friend-<br /><br />JaneJanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15354593791540400671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7667593032852808578.post-79327356311346363002012-01-19T21:53:32.517-08:002012-01-19T21:53:32.517-08:00What a beautiful story, Julie.

I have sat and wept as I have read through your blog. I am a mother of two beautiful children, an almost 4 year old daughter and a 16 month old son. I just wanted you to know that you have given me a renewed appreciation of how blessed I am to be a mother, despite how difficult it can be at times, and I thank you for that. I am so sorry for your loss, and hope that you find continued peace and comfort through this most difficult time. -MackenzieThe Walker'shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17609566117827942006noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7667593032852808578.post-20720717949717898302012-01-19T20:15:10.184-08:002012-01-19T20:15:10.184-08:00Julie,
Ever since I have heard the news about Jona...Julie,<br />Ever since I have heard the news about Jonah, I kept thinking "I need to do something to let her know I am thinking of her. I need to write, to call, to send, to..." But, here it is. Time has passed and I am late. Julie, I just haven't known what to say. Do I tell you that I sob as I read your words because you are living my worst nightmare? Do I tell you that I think of you when I lay down at night, wondering if you are okay? Do I tell you that although I never met Jonah, I think of him almost every time I feed Ella (who is 14-months-old.) Do I tell you that I try to live a better life because of you? I don't know. I just don't want to say the wrong thing. There is something about being a mother that bonds us all together. For example, when my children are screaming in the middle of the store and as I pass other mothers in the aisle, they smile and nod, which I know means..."I understand and you will make it through". We just have these connections...these understandings. Julie, I am not claiming to know the pain, grief, sadness, and even clarity and understanding you have found during this experience. But I still feel connected to you because what I do understand is the indescribable feeling of love a mother has for her children. The obvious and undeniable love that you have for Jonah. I grieve with you, I learn from you, I am inspired by you, and I find hope with you. I saw your mom this last week and she reminded me that it's not too late. I hope she's right and I hope that I did know what to say after all.<br />Jill BellAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7667593032852808578.post-65864461269620690152012-01-19T19:55:46.430-08:002012-01-19T19:55:46.430-08:00that is incredible!that is incredible!Katiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02907148538855429311noreply@blogger.com
