Our loss!

On May 9, 2010 we loss our baby. I was 6 weeks and happy to have this new little baby to come into our lifes and so was Rod and many others. So lossing the baby was a shock to all of us. So how do you deal with something like this? So many things you can do, but my mom sent this to me and it has helped alot. Thanks mom.

       Two Boxes

 I have in my hands two boxes,
which God gave me to hold.
He said, "Put all your sorrows in the black box,
And all your joys in the gold.

I heeded His words, and in the two boxes,
Both my joys and sorrows I stored,
But though the gold became heavier each day,
The black was as light as before.

With curiosity, I opened the black,
I wanted to find out why,
And I saw, in the base of the box, a hole,
Which my sorrows had fallen out by.

I showed the hole to God, and mused,
"I wonder where my sorrows could be!"
He smiled a gentle smile and said,
"My child, they're all here with me.."

I asked God, why He gave me the boxes,
Why the gold and the black with a hole?
"My child, the gold is for you to count your blessings, The black is for you to let go."

This is a great pome!! Thanks again mom..
