Catherine

Four years ago I miscarried. You named the baby, Catherine. Four years later, we still cry a little.  We think about the suffering of that day and the loss of what could have been.

Yet, now we value...

life...
Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I consecrated you.  Jeremiah 1:5
suffering...
After we have suffered, the God of all grace will restore, establish and strengthen us. God promises us that our suffering will ultimately be followed by glory.  Peter 5:10  
and the promise of eternal life...

...more.

Catherine may not need us as we want to be needed.  But we need Catherine:)

Love,
Mom
