The one central thing that seems to hold true for all is that God was in control. God has a plan. I will keep you and Dave in my prayers! Hugs, Maureen Dearest Liz,

It's tempting to say nothing when you don't know what to say--speaking from my point of view--but I've learned thru my own losses and sufferings that it's so much better when friends try to say SOMETHING to ease the burden and enter the pain. This is me trying to say something to let you know that your kind of struggle and disappointment are unimaginable as I gaze back from this side of the chasm between "kids" and "no kids." I am so sorry. Thanks for speaking from the heart and letting us in today. Sending you dearest love today. Hey Liz,

This day is bittersweet for me, too, because I had an abusive mother. It's been a long journey to learn to embrace the gift of my own three kids- I was terrified I'd mess them up. My church made us go up there, too, and it was awkward. Yes, mothers do deserve recognition, but never in a way that diminishes others. Thank you for sharing. Well done, Liz.
