...and with each passing moment. It was the hymn we sang at Evie's memorial. It's become a kind of theme song for us since losing our daughter. It's probably no coincidence that the songwritter Lina Sandell also experienced a tragic loss of her child. We experience both pain and pleasure, toil and rest. But we take life one day at a time: mourning her every day, but doing our best to live on.
After Evie got sick, there was something that felt good about writing out what was happening--to "tell our story" was cathartic. I'm hoping some periodic writing will have the same effect now that we are grieving her loss. Also we can use this to post pictures and write about all things in general to help ourselves remember that our life is going on.
Our second little one, Lucinda, arrived on July 5th 2009. She is the most inerestesting thing in our lives, so you can expect this space to be mostly taken over by pictures and updates about her!
