Our Family Journey: June 2009
http://theatkinsfamily6.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Thursday, June 11, 2009. I can't believe we have completed another school year already! Where has the time gone? Abbie finished 7th grade and Caroline is now a 2nd grader! I am so proud of both of them, you know statistics show that is takes students about 2 years to get back on track at school after the death of someone close and both of my girls have done very well, despite the inner pain they are sure to be experiencing! What a pleasant memory for me. Will I even have a child at this school next year?

Our Family Journey: October 2008
http://theatkinsfamily6.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
Friday, October 31, 2008. I wanted to get all of you prayer warriors on board! A very dear family to us has a child in Boston having surgery (as I type) to remove an AVM in his brain. This is the same diagnosis that Claire had; however, Jonathan's AVM is in the frontal portion of his brain and is operable! Please check out the Caring Bridge Website http:/ www.caringbridge.org/visit/jonathanbryant and be praying for Jonathan, his parents, sister, family, medical and surgical staff!

Tuesday, March 2, 2010. Just One More Day. It has been a long time, since I blogged! Thought I would take a few minutes and share some thoughts on my first entire calendar year without my precious daughter to share it with! Done anything for a consecutive 365 days! Although I have had great intentions! But, for the entire calendar year of 2009 365 days, 24 hours a day, 60 minutes an hour I grieved and mourned my daughter! I have thought, many times, about what I would do if I had one more day with Claire...

Our Family Journey: "You Don't Bring Me (Paper) Flowers Anymore"
http://theatkinsfamily6.blogspot.com/2009/05/you-dont-bring-me-paper-flowers-anymore.html
Thursday, May 7, 2009. You Don't Bring Me (Paper) Flowers Anymore". OK, remember the Neil Diamond (love him! And Barbara Streisand song! Well, I was thinking about all of my past Mother's Days and how lucky and blessed I have been! Jeff and I were married in December of 1994 and we became pregnant with Abbigayle in April of 1995, so my entire married adult life I have been happy on Mother's Day! I have had a reason to celebrate as an expectant mom or as a mommy! It's really kinda strange! As you all know...

Tuesday, January 27, 2009. I Have A Dream". How many times have I heard that phrase this past week? Dreams come in all shapes and sizes! Our children. We even pray that God will so evidently reveal himself to them that they will have no question of the direction their lives will take. We have dreams for all of our girls! Abbigayle is so graceful and has such a loving personality and I am so proud of the young woman she is becoming, one that loves the Lord and wants to please him! Happy Birthday To Me!

Tuesday, July 28, 2009. Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep. Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep; I pray the Lord my soul to keep. If I should die before I wake; I pray the Lord my soul to take! One of the first prayers I remember learning as a child! If I died before I awoke in the morning I wanted God to take my soul to heaven! Exactly one year ago today, Jeff and I laid our precious Claire to rest forever! Claire's body was lowered into the ground. Without Claire in our presence. Forever, there will be an empty cha...

Wednesday, December 24, 2008. And the Stockings were hung by the Chimney with Care. Well, we have finally hung up our stockings, read the Christmas story from Luke and the girls are all snuggled in their beds (not asleep but in bed). I believe that God is a merciful and gracious God and wants our eternal presence with him. Merry Christmas to You and May God Blessings abound in the coming year! Monday, December 15, 2008. It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas. Well here we are 9 days from Christmas!
