One year ago today I was in shock.
One year ago today I felt that a part of my heart was missing.
One year ago today I was lying in a hospital bed, in a town I had been living in for only a couple weeks, awaiting an open time slot for surgery.
One year ago today I couldn't stop crying.
One year ago today my expectations changed.
One year ago today Michael and my relationship was strengthened.
One year ago today I had questions without answers.
One year ago today I was trying to understand.
One year ago today I discovered the importance of having a strong support system of family and friends.
One year ago today I found myself relying on Christ, because I didn't know what else to do.
One year ago today we lost Baby Chapman.
One year later I am hopeful.
One year later I am healing.
One year later I am still waiting.
One year later my expectations keep changing.
One year later my husband is still my best friend.
One year later I still have questions, but am at peace with not having all the answers.
One year later I realize I may never fully understand in this lifetime.
One year later I am thankful for friends and family, and getting to be close to some of them here in Oregon for a little while.
One year later I have to daily trust the Lord about our future, and must be patient and wait for His Perfect Timing.
Today, I am remembering our loss. Today, I am looking forward to the future.
