I do not know whether I ever wrote ...Dear Crystal,<br /><br />I do not know whether I ever wrote a note. I guess I did but I am not sure. I have been following your blog for almost a year now. If I am right it was a hint in Brent Riggs blog the day Sage passed away…<br /><br />It was so heart breaking. And still touching. I am Mormon, here in Germany. So I share the truths you hold on to. Our family is sealed in the temple too. But I guess you needed to go a much bigger step than I did! <br /><br />I wanted to let you know that I do think of you in these days. And while there are no new posts in your family blog I had a look on Sage’s memorial page. It made me cry. There is so much love. For Sage, for your brothers, your kids, Jesus. I was often touched by the music that you had chosen. Today I have listened to “I will” several times. I wonder whether I could use it for either my RS lesson next Sunday or the RS birthday. <br /><br />There was one paragraph that went straight into my heart: <br /><br />So I guess I got my wish….”NO NO NO you don’t, your getting to big”! I wonder how long I will have to wait till I get to see him grow and be a big boy? He is going to be my baby for a very long time.<br /><br />We do not know. We pray every morning and every night with and for our kids. We say things. And we do not know about Heavenly Father’s plans for them and us. Sometimes I feel a kind of fear because of all the things that could happen. But I know this is not the way He wants us to have. The only thing we can do is to express our love as often as possible. Still we are not perfect. So hopefully our kids and husbands do know we love them. <br /><br />Crystal, once more I would like to let you know that my prayers and thoughts are with you. I think some other tough days lay ahead. I hope you feel comforted by your family and by or Savior. I also would like to say thank you for sharing your feelings and thoughts. This was special to me.<br /><br />With love,<br />GeertjeGeertjehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09414815025475504403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5240686724836354179.post-13874334038611613792010-02-24T09:47:12.177-08:002010-02-24T09:47:12.177-08:00It just makes me cry to read that.

I imagine how humble you are, how life is so much more about the inner instead of the outer now...<br />I am glad you took a day for the outer. :) I think the "old crystal" is gone now, and the new you will have remnants of the old, but will forever be changed. And I think it's good - you are improved having been, and being your son's momma. You can't go back to what you were before you had to let him go. <br />My 6 year old's eyes popped out last week - she exclaimed when she saw me, "Mommy! Lipstick!" I realized then that it's been so long since I have worn lipstick that she was shocked. She was happy to see me like that, like how I used to look all the time. I didn't realize, like you, that I had changed so much - or that my kids notice.Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09364996013596703990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5240686724836354179.post-37895571845056375072010-02-21T15:08:22.921-08:002010-02-21T15:08:22.921-08:00You really did look beautiful yesterday.

Though you must know, I spent some days with a lovely, gracious, beautiful young woman last year, even when she was in the depths of despair. That inner beauty can not be hidden.<br /><br />Good for William for telling you when he sees the change on the outside. Hope he always does!Sharronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12013742271262533795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5240686724836354179.post-48498336729420219732010-02-20T12:35:57.249-08:002010-02-20T12:35:57.249-08:00Your son sounds like such a sweetheart!

How wonderful for you!<br /><br />I know from your posts that you are also beautiful on the inside with the love that you have expressed about Sage and your family. <br /><br />Like you, it will take time to regain some of what we have lost. I am struggling to regain my outward appearance as well and feel as though I have aged so. <br /><br />My inner self is slowly becomming somewhat of the positive person I used to be, but will be forever changed.<br /><br />It is so nice when one of our children compliment us. I feel as though it is God's way of encouraging us. May you have a wonderful time at the bridal shower. <br /><br />With love and hope,<br />Cheryl<br />We are NineCherylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09995656964857816898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5240686724836354179.post-72211692425107436192010-02-20T01:41:40.952-08:002010-02-20T01:41:40.952-08:00Oh Will's comment just broke my heart.
