He lived only six short days from July 14-20 2005. I am now carrying another baby with the same defect that took Isaac. Day by day God is getting us through as well. I know that words are inadequate, but know we are praying for you here in PA! Your Isaac was a beautiful little guy who probably accomplished more in 24 weeks than many of us do in a lifetime! I am sure you are very proud of your son!<BR/><BR/>Kristy<BR/>www.babybolte.blogspot.comboltefamilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09178547489939649432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36874548.post-90128315934472216872008-01-28T09:08:00.000-05:002008-01-28T09:08:00.000-05:00Hello,After reading your heart-wrenching story, I ...Hello,<BR/><BR/>After reading your heart-wrenching story, I thought I'd share what we're doing and see if you'd be interested in being involved.<BR/><BR/>Many Blessings,<BR/>Tiffany Evans<BR/>www.untiljourneysend.blogspot.comTiffany Evanshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13120638500807618581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36874548.post-13291282201840355002008-01-27T11:44:00.000-05:002008-01-27T11:44:00.000-05:00Hi there Patience and Jordan,Just thought I'd drop...Hi there Patience and Jordan,<BR/>Just thought I'd drop by, say hi, and let you know that we're still thinking of you and praying for you daily.

God is the Ultimate Father and He is with our children, whether they are here with us, or in Heaven with Him.<BR/><BR/>Thought of you and closed my eyes<BR/>And prayed to God today.<BR/>I asked what makes a Mother,<BR/>And I know I heard him say... <BR/><BR/>"A Mother has a baby."<BR/>This we know is true.<BR/>"But God, can you be a Mother<BR/>When your baby's not with you?"<BR/><BR/>"Yes, you can," He replied,<BR/>With confidence in His voice.<BR/>"I give many women babies<BR/>When they leave is not their choice. <BR/><BR/>Some I send for a lifetime,<BR/>And others for just a day.<BR/>And some I send to feel your womb<BR/>But there's no need to stay." <BR/><BR/>"I just don't understand this, God<BR/>I want my baby here!"<BR/>He took a breath and cleared His throat<BR/>And then I saw a tear. <BR/><BR/>"I wish I could show you<BR/>What your child is doing today.<BR/>If you could see your baby smile<BR/>With other children and say, <BR/><BR/>'We go to earth to learn our lessons<BR/>Of love and life and fear.<BR/>My Mommy loved me oh so much<BR/>I got to come straight here.<BR/><BR/>I feel so lucky to have a Mom<BR/>Who had so much love for me.<BR/>I learned my lesson very quickly;<BR/>My mommy set me free. <BR/><BR/>I miss my Mommy oh so much<BR/>But I visit her each day.<BR/>When she goes to sleep at night<BR/>On her pillow's where I lay. <BR/><BR/>I stroke her hair and kiss her cheek<BR/>And whisper in her ear.<BR/>Mommy don't be sad today<BR/>I'm your baby and I am here.' <BR/><BR/>So you see my dear sweet one<BR/>Your child is okay.<BR/>Your baby is here in My arms<BR/>And this is where he'll stay. <BR/><BR/>He'll wait for you with Me now<BR/>Until your time is through.<BR/>And on the day that you come home<BR/>He'll be at the gates for you. <BR/><BR/>So now you see what makes a Mother,<BR/>It's the feeling in your heart.<BR/>It's the love you had so much of<BR/>Right from the very start."<BR/><BR/>We're still praying for your continued healing and comfort until you meet your little man in Heaven.

No great insights or profound thoughts"???.... You must know that you both have shared all of these things with so many of us. We are the ones without proper words of gratitude for the way you have opened your most vulnerable feelings to us, all for Isaac, all for God's glory. "Thank you" seems very little when you have given so much. Prayers and blessings continue your way as you make it thru another day, another week, another month.<BR/><BR/>Isaac's headstone is bittersweet, as this whole journey has been.

I check in on your blog most days - and if there are no updates, I just re-read all the stuff I've read before! Christmas is getting closer now, and I wanted to let you know that we'll be thinking of you particularly over the next few weeks. I remember the year we lost Will, Christmas was pretty sad - so many things we'd have liked to have bought, but couldn't. You've both been amazing through your whole experience with Isaac, and your faith has really shone throughout, but if you're anything like me, every now and then you just have to stamp your feet and shout and cry about how unfair everything is! Please remember we're here if you ever need to let off steam - we've been there, done that and got the t-shirt, so we do understand! Take care of each other.

The station was doing a fundraiser for the Children's Hospital and someone had sent the DJ your blog. Even before they said his name I knew they were talking about Isaac! It brought tears to my eyes b/c he will never be fogotten and will live in our hearts. Just want you to know his story is being told and touching people in ways you won't ever know until you are with him again in heaven. Until then know you are both still prayed for, loved and thought of. Isaac is with Jesus and he is smiling and laughing and he knows how much he is loved and that he is your "sweet boy." I bet if he could talk to you he would want to say Mommy, I am okay now. And you and daddy will be okay, too. It is so wonderful here and we will be together soon and then it will be forever...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36874548.post-37293391477492986882007-11-17T10:17:00.000-05:002007-11-17T10:17:00.000-05:00Recently I was having a conversation with a friend...Recently I was having a conversation with a friend.
