Remembering Carter......Always

Dear Lord,
I'm not doing very well today, and I feel helpless to encourage myself. My faith today is nothing that would make You proud. All I know to do is to say what is true about You. I am weak, but You are strong. I am not hopeless because You sit at the right hand of the Father interceding for me. And I am not worthless because the Son of the Living God gave His life for me.
Amen.



"We are weak, but you are strong!" 1 Corinthians 4:10






"The Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groans that words cannot express." Romans 8:26

Praying for you...

And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.- Revelations 21:4

Your sister in Christ, Amy

Laura's Spot is beautiful! A perfect place to release balloons for Carter Mike on his 8 month angelversary. Miss that boy! Carter's home, and someday, we will all be Finally Home with him...

I'm gonna wrap my arms around my daddy's neck
And tell him that I've missed him.

And tell him all about the man that I became
And hope that it pleased him.

There's so much I want to say,
There's so much I want you to know.

When I finally make it Home...
When I finally make it Home.

Then I'll gaze upon the throne of the King-
Frozen in my steps.

And all the questions that I swore that I would ask-
Words just won't come yet.

So amazed at what I've seen, so much more
Than this old mind can hold...

When I finally make it Home...
When I finally make it Home.

And the sweetest sound these ears have yet to hear-
The voices of the angels!

When I finally make it Home...
When I finally make it Home.

See you at Home, Carter Mike!!!

Dear Chad, Nicole and Bradley,
We often think of you and pray for you. My heart aches for the pain you endure daily. I know in this life that God walks with us and that Carter is celebrating life in Heaven every day.
I wish there was something we on Earth could do to take the pain away, but God is holding you in his hand...so hold on tight.

Dearest Dorwins,
I read each and very thing you put on this blog and I pray someday your pain wil ease and you will laugh again. It hasn't even been a year yet Nicole since your sweet boy left his earthly home. Please let yourself grieve, feel the pain and then give it to God. He is the only one who can help in this situation. You amaze me every time I read your blog, your faith is so deep and beautiful.I know I could not have endured this suffering with the grace and dignity that you have shown. you are an inspiration to us all and Bradley sees a wonderful example of love and faith in you. I still cry too each time I come on here.
I will read this blog until you stop doing it.God Bless you.
