Angel mommies

Throughout this experience I've met amazing people that have helped me along the way. None have been more amazing than my fellow angel mommies. It is so incredible to me that during their darkest and desperate moments, they reach out and give comfort to others. I was visiting my angel over the weekend and was approached by a mom, who is also named Ana. She lost her baby girl at 36 weeks in December. Ana was visiting her baby Isabelle and decided to come over to speak with me. She invited me to a gathering in honor of our angels. She and her husband want to honor the angels at Mt. Olivet. It was endearing to see love in Ana's eyes and receive comfort from her. I was so humbled because I know the pain that she feels and yet she is reaching out and helping others. Shortly after, another angel mommy came by to wish me a good day.

It reminded me that out of tragedy God creates good. It's easy for us to blame God when bad things happen because we want to put the blame on something, anything. But I've often thought, what if God doesn't cause these things to happen, they just do. It is the world that we live in; but God can and does create good out of really bad situations.

My journey has brought me closer to some of the most amazing people in this world. I am so very grateful for their love and support. It is not easy to give love when your heart is absolutely broken.  There is nothing like a person who's heart is shattered and somehow scrapes up all of the pieces to continue to give love.

Without Evangeline I would have never had the opportunity to be in their presence. There is a reason why they are referred to as warrior moms.
