I did, however, get Timothy's golf scrapbook done (at least Freshman and Sophomore year). It will probably be the only one I'll ever do...except maybe for James when he's in high school sports. It just isn't my gift...but, it was for a good cause. And we are so grateful that the UMC ladies were willing to do this to support Sufficient Grace Ministries. Thanks, ladies for a wonderful day...and for your donation! Plus...how amazing is Holly for being willing to drive all the way up here? Love that girl! Holly- you rock!
Visit Holly to read more...her pics are always better than mine! =)

Also...just wanted to take a moment and share a bible study and support group that Kristie shared with me. I had hoped to take part, as I've been meaning to read Threads of Hope, Pieces of Joy for quite awhile now! Even before I heard about Kristie's support group, I wanted to do this bible study for a Walking With You segment. I thought I'd purchase a few books to give away and for those who do not win, I believe the book is now offered online for free. (The authors recently shared it with me...and I'll share the link here when it's closer to the time.) I don't want to take away from what Kristie is trying to do, so I thought I'd start the Walking With You - Threads of Hope Study the same week Kristie is beginning hers. That way, you are free to participate in both. I will probably just do mine here, since Kristie's requires you to be online at a certain time, and I'm just not able to commit to that. I think it will be great, though for those who could benefit from "live" support...and I'm grateful for her willing heart to comfort grieving families.

Stay tuned for more information about the Walking With You - Threads of Hope Study beginning February 25th. I'd like to the sessions weekly until we complete the study. So, let me know if you're interested!

The scrapping sounds like fun!
I started the bible study with Kristie and then found out I was expecting. It was so emotional for me and I had to stop. Kristie was a sweetheart and so understanding. I am interested in sharing in with you through your blog. I think that would help. I began reading the book and it is phenomenal.
xo
I wish that we all lived closer!!! Scrapping is so much fun, and a whole lot of work!
I'm "re-playing" my last post over and over in my head.... I hope I didn't sound to mean. I felt very judged by a few. My heart was in the right place when I went and got it done. I really hope that I didn't disappoint God:(
I'm very interested in the bible study. Keep me posted.
Yes, Holly rocks! lol
Oh, what a time for both of you.
I signed up for sweet Kristie's study, but didn't know if I could commit to the Thursday night. I really want to do this study, so I am interested in what you may plan to do.
And you both are so beautiful! Inside and out!
What a great idea! I think that's so neat that Holly got to come. I am a replayer too. I am always thinking about what I said after I get home :(
I am a re-player, and it drives my husband crazy because it's combined with insecurity. Yesterday I finally told someone up here about losing Ethan (we were in the middle of moving to NY when it happened, and have just started meeting people up here) and I have replayed it over and over in my head. Glad I'm not the only one!
I would be interested in the study. I don't think I can commit to the set meeting times, but I would love to participate here.
I'm definitely glad I went! It was a good time! And I accomplished some pages! I gave my mom that memory box thing and she really liked it.
I'd love to participate in the bible study with you. I have been interested in that one.
Kelly, although I've still behind on the Walking with You posts (I know you understand), I'm interested in participating in this bible study. I think it would be good for as I'm beginning to feel lost again. The fact that it starts February 25 - the day before my birthday, the last time I heard Calvin's heartbeat, and a week before I found out he had gone to be with God - is probably a sign for me.
PS the scrapbooking looks like it was a good time. if i lived closer, i would have loved to attend.
PPS i never told, but i gave the Dreams of You Memory Books and Comfort Bears to the people in support group and they were really touched by them. they'd never seen a book for baby loss and the bears were just the right size. there were tears, of course, but i think they were good sad tears. thank you again for the beautiful work you do!
