You are such a strong woman of Christ and that is awesome! Ian is lucky to have had wonderful parents as you and Wae. You are in my prayers more this week than usual.<br />MeganAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217485064832221027.post-61057837661821985582010-10-05T17:30:28.609-07:002010-10-05T17:30:28.609-07:00My sweet, sweet daughter.

I also have been reliving everything from the last days, journaling it from these Nonnie eyes.I have made the same statement, that just because it has been a yr does not make it hurt any less. Sometimes the hurt is just so great, you don't think you can bear it.But I heard a statement the other day that said they think Jesus meets the children, holds their hand and walks them into heaven. I can take some comfort in that. Doesn't make my heartache go away, but what an honor - to be walked into heaven, hand in hand with Jesus. I do think to Ian it just seems like a second since he's seen us, and he is so excited to show you the wonderful place he's saving for his Mommy and Daddy. I love you so very much!!!moniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16177527757123743733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217485064832221027.post-21386832129589187532010-10-05T17:09:51.306-07:002010-10-05T17:09:51.306-07:00Sending up extra prayers for you in the next coupl...Sending up extra prayers for you in the next couple of weeks.

A day does not go by when I do not miss and think of Ian. I pray for strength and peace for you and Wae in the days to come. You are courageous!<br />Love,<br />KylaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217485064832221027.post-55416733695794621222010-10-05T13:41:33.780-07:002010-10-05T13:41:33.780-07:00I have no words that could comfort you during this...I have no words that could comfort you during this time Mary. All that I know to do is to continue to lift you up in prayer. I told mom that I keep reliving that most private moment with Ian and being there with you all when he decided to meet Jesus. Oh how I would have loved to see what was going on on the other side when that little boy arrived. I know that the angels danced and the Lord rejoiced to welcome him in. It is just like you said in your post; I am thankful that I was raised in a Christian home and was given the chance to learn about God and and His faithfulness. To learn of hope, heaven, love, and forgiveness. I know that I will have an eternity to play with Ian and for that I am grateful. Does it take the hurt I am feeling away right now? No it doesn't but it does make me smile through the tears to know that one day I will have no time limit with the ones that I love and we will all rejoice together forever! I love you so much and I am so proud of the witness, mother, daughter, friend, sister, cousin, teacher, woman, that you are!Mallory Wilkinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14151636552637254751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217485064832221027.post-85156062590379925172010-10-05T13:25:02.162-07:002010-10-05T13:25:02.162-07:00Mary, I can't even focus on anything today.......Mary, I can't even focus on anything today....All I want to do is look at pictures of Ian. My heart is breaking...He is sooo missed by all of us, I am so sorry for the pain I know that you and Wae are going through. I know God is faithful and he will get you through this week. I just keep telling myself that Ian is happy and healed! Thank God our goodbye here on earth is not the end....we will see that sweet face again! I am still praying God's comforting arms around you and Wae.....Thank you for teaching us so much..Your strength is incredible. I know it comes from God. It is such a testimony to your faith and a witness to so many...I love you!Dottiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11996482869966083682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217485064832221027.post-42140336790288521552010-10-05T12:23:39.451-07:002010-10-05T12:23:39.451-07:00How beautifully you put into words your feelings, ...How beautifully you put into words your feelings, and yet we all realize the words you used in NO WAY convey the hurt, despair, and heartache you feel. Praise God that He allowed Ian to be born to a Mommy and Daddy who loves the Lord and who told Ian over and over about how wonderful his life would be when he put on a new body that would not have pain or hurt. Praise God that He gives you, Wae, and your entire family the assurance that you will spend eternity with your precious boy. Praise God for mothers and fathers who drag us to church and teach us the values we need to have so that "when we are older we will not depart from it". And Praise God for your testimony and continuing faith. You and your entire family are in my thoughts and prayers.<br /><br />Leah OdamAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217485064832221027.post-89500817205126281542010-10-05T07:54:49.180-07:002010-10-05T07:54:49.180-07:00Praying for you and Wae this week especially, Mary...Praying for you and Wae this week especially, Mary.
