An honest reflection of me- in fragments. Imperfect- Grace Covered. Balance. Mom. Wife.
Nurse. Homeschool Teacher. Christ follower first. Second changes. Thankful.

A baby's heartbeat

Monday, August 26, 2019



Tonight she held and kissed him one last time
His dad cried as tiny fingers wrapped around his one last time
Tonight they said goodbye to their son
Oh heartbreak and sweet precious time, is there ever enough

Today his heart continues to beat
Inside another
Who needed her to say goodbye and his dad to cry
Oh gift of life that requires such painful sacrifice, his precious life was enough

Enough to save, Enough to give, 
Enough for others to continue to live

In their grief they gave joy
Joy and hope and promise of more

More time, more smiles, more tears and more trials
Oh heartbreak and sweet precious time, there is what there is
May we make the most of whatever is ours to give

In honor of a tiny organ donor
For all my friends and co-workers who lovingly served him and his family
And for his family who so courageously gave.
