Somewhere Under The Rainbow: Heavenly Aid
http://somewhereundertherainbowjironfamily.blogspot.com/2014/05/heavenly-aid.html
Somewhere Under The Rainbow. Wednesday, May 14, 2014. During the labor when it came time to push, I got to a point where I couldn't do it. Physically, emotionally, spiritually I. was. done. I was shaking and I couldn't breathe and I mean I just couldn't do it. Before she died, she wrote a letter to her son. I love this excerpt:. Even here in this life. May 14, 2014 at 2:14 PM. I love her story, Thankyou for sharing yours, too. God knows that must have been hard. You have my prayers! As I navigate motherh...

Somewhere Under The Rainbow: April 2012
http://somewhereundertherainbowjironfamily.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Somewhere Under The Rainbow. Thursday, April 19, 2012. I haven’t been blogging lately. It’s not that the ideas aren’t there. Nearly every day there is some new moment with one of my children I want to capture forever or sometimes moments that I want to forget and I know that writing about it is therapeutic. But it’s just that life is so full of well, LIFE. It reminds me of an old country song by DougStone, “I was too busy being in love. Here he is with his birthday cake! 8221; as he makes a basket. So my...

Somewhere Under The Rainbow: Forgettable Moments to Remember
http://somewhereundertherainbowjironfamily.blogspot.com/2012/10/forgettable-moments-to-remember.html
Somewhere Under The Rainbow. Saturday, October 27, 2012. Forgettable Moments to Remember. Do you remember the scene in "Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood" where Susan Sarandon is about to lose her mind taking care of several children with the stomach flu? And although it is easy to feel like somehow I'm the martyr, I was reminded several times this week that although this is hard. And I mean HARD. Thankful that I had plenty of wine and frozen dinners on hand. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Somewhere Under The Rainbow: December 2011
http://somewhereundertherainbowjironfamily.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Somewhere Under The Rainbow. Wednesday, December 21, 2011. But despite our desire to look at the past positively, I do think there are certain seasons and chapters in life that are just plain great. Here are the older two with Grandpa. Christmas 2008). Look at that joy! Recently they spent hours in the basement secretly working on gifts for us that they brought out when we decorated the tree. Until I realized it couldn't be more beautiful. Everything is in readiness. Why don’t I hear chimes? As the legen...

Somewhere Under The Rainbow: October 2011
http://somewhereundertherainbowjironfamily.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Somewhere Under The Rainbow. Monday, October 31, 2011. In “Ten Habits of Happy Mothers”. Dr Meeker encouraged the reader to do a little exercise. On a sheet of paper, write down all the expectations that you place on yourself, reasonable or unreasonable: the things that you either do or consistently feel guilty about not doing. My list included everything from spending time in prayer daily to having plucked eyebrows, shaved legs, and painted toenails. This list looked much different. If I could master pu...

Somewhere Under The Rainbow: Going Home
http://somewhereundertherainbowjironfamily.blogspot.com/2014/05/going-home.html
Somewhere Under The Rainbow. Tuesday, May 27, 2014. I woke up this morning with the thought, "I want to go home". Which was a little strange, since I was at home. I'm not sure what this meant. That I want to go to heaven? That this place doesn't feel like home without my baby? That I want to go back to a few weeks ago when the world was a safe place and God was obviously kind and good? Given the fact that I had just had the thought that I want to go home, this stood out to me and spoke to me deeply. ...

Somewhere Under The Rainbow: My Boys
http://somewhereundertherainbowjironfamily.blogspot.com/2014/05/my-boys.html
Somewhere Under The Rainbow. Thursday, May 29, 2014. My four boys have been good medicine for me over the past month. Besides forcing me to keep putting one foot in front of the other and functioning at some (very low) level, they bring joy to my days that are filled with an ache that won't go away. Their snuggles, hugs, and laughter are so healing to my soul. Laughter while grieving is especially healing. May 30, 2014 at 4:41 PM. I am so sorry for your loss. Its the worst pain I have ever felt. ...As I ...

Somewhere Under The Rainbow: Financial Skydiving
http://somewhereundertherainbowjironfamily.blogspot.com/2012/01/financial-skydiving.html
Somewhere Under The Rainbow. Thursday, January 26, 2012. My husband and I have tried (although imperfectly) to follow what we believe is God's will for us, even sometimes if it doesn't make financial sense. God has proven time and time again, that indeed, "all these things shall be added unto you" (Mt 6:33). That same day… I opened a Christmas card with no return address with $300 in cash inside. That same day. But he insisted and I read:. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). As I navigate motherhood I ho...
