I've been quiet during August. The month started with Nora's birthday. I was dreading it for a week or two before it came. I didn't want to talk about it. I just wanted to have it pass. We had a plan for celebrating her birthday as a family. We took Cole to a movie- <b>Planes Fire and Rescue </b>-. He was so happy! We enjoyed princess cupcakes, balloons and Cole even got a little present from a friend. He would tell everyone "I got this for Nora's birthday."<br />
I didn't know how I would feel on that day. It was hard. It was sad. I ended up in the bed for a few hours crying; just mourning the loss of my daughter and the events of those days a year ago. We received so much love that weekend from friends and family who were also remembering Nora. That meant so much to us. <br />

Honestly, a few days later what I felt was<i> relief</i>.
Relieved that I made it through a year. Relieved that we were past August 3rd. Relieved that we had lived
almost every "first" without her that we had to go through. Every
holiday, every birthday, every little moment that comes each year. We
have lived through each one once.<br />
<br />
The month moved on and in mid-August some sweet friends hosted a baby shower for Sam. It was hard for me to decide to have a shower because Nora died the day of my baby shower last year. But I wanted to celebrate and embrace this pregnancy and this sweet baby boy so I went for it :)<br />
That day I felt nervous and overwhelmed. And then I felt <i>relief. </i>I made it to the shower. <br />
And it was a beautiful rainbow fiesta dinner. It was so fun and I felt so so loved that night. <br />

<br />
At the end of August also came the gestational anniversary of my loss with Nora. Nora died at 32 weeks and 6 days. 32 weeks was when I gradually noticing a decrease in her movement. This has already cause a great deal of stress and anxiety during this pregnancy but it came on huge once I hit the 32 week mark. I had a hard, stressful week. I ended up in the doctor's office or at triage 5 times this past week. Sometimes for consistent contractions and sometimes for fear of the baby not moving.<br />

My doctors are so sweet to me - they have been this entire pregnancy. They encourage me to come in and be monitored even though we checked on the baby the day before. They say that if I need to come into the office every day until the baby comes then that is okay with them. My sweet doctor said the other day "I know you won't be okay until you're holding this baby in your arms." He's right and it's nice that he understands that. <br />
<br />
<br />
My sweet college friend, Nikki, flew here from Texas for the weekend to visit. We'd been discussing when would be a good time to come and I knew this week would be hard. She said, "Ok I'll come then." It was such a blessing to have her here for 3 days. It was the most relaxed I felt all week. She's a good bedrest companion! So thankful for the gift of good friends.<br />

So now that it's September I am <i>relieved. </i>With God's grace I've made it through. I feel joy and I feel pain. They seem to always co-exist these days and that's okay with me. The pain of Nora's death will always, always be there. But I'm seeing more and more joy in my life and for that I'm thankful. I'm thankful for this sweet baby boy that's kicking me right now and I'm thankful for all the ways the Lord has stretched me and grown me this year. I'm thankful for what Nora's short life has done to deepen my relationship with the Lord. I'm thankful for friends that helped me and continue to help me make it through life. I'm hopeful for a new chapter coming this fall. For once I'm excited and happy for a new season and glad that life is moving on. <br />

We are asking for prayer for our sweet baby. I am in pre-term labor again. While it is not surprising because this is obviously the way my body reacts to pregnancy it is again concerning. I am on a modified bed rest trying to do my best at resting the majority of each day and not doing a lot of activities. We have been blessed with lots of support and help from family and friends bringing us food, cleaning, and helping with Coleman. <br />
<br />
I have good days and bad days. I am on some medications to help control the contractions and am being monitored closely. We are just resting and waiting - trying to make it as long as we can. <br />
Learning to trust God more and more each day. <br />

I've been working on Coleman's big boy room for months now. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We took him out of the crib around February - yes when he was 3! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
He loved his crib and we loved it too but at 3 it was time to change. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
He got a race car bed. a 3 year old boy's dream. He loves it! He talked about it for months; told strangers about his bed. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It took me a while to work on the other decor in his room. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I don't consider myself great at interior decorating. There are much cuter rooms out there but this is what we came up with without spending too much on all new stuff. </div>

These letters were in Cole's nursery. My friend <a href="http://christopherandanne.blogspot.com/">Anne</a> had decorated his nursery and made these letters with navy/red/blue patterns. I decided to re purpose them to match his new room. So I just took some checkered paper from hobby lobby and used modge podge. It was an inexpensive way to reuse his letters. </div>

The race track I got off of <a href="http://www.amazon.com/ReStik-Race-Ya-Wall-Stickers/dp/B004AVRXHS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1404161336&sr=8-1&keywords=blik+wall+decals">Amazon</a>. It was pretty easy to apply. The hardest part was making a race track and measuring to make sure it took up the entire length of the wall. Cole loves it and I think it looks really good for wall decals. <br />

We've had a busy month. We did all 3 of our summer vacations back to back.<br />
<br />
We started off our summer with a trip to Hilton Head with the Parrish Family. <br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
So fun to begin summer at the beach. Cole loved the sand, the waves, & the pool. He also loved playing with his cousin Brody. </div>

Next we headed to Fontana Lake in the mountains of NC with the whole Barnes clan.<br />
<br />
We hiked, swam, and spent a day on the lake. Even Coleman took a turn tubing with his Dad. The lake was clear and beautiful. We had beautiful weather and enjoyed spending time with all our cousins. <br />

Even though I lived in Florida for 6 years I don't think I ever saw the gulf. It was beautiful with white sand beaches and a fun resort with lots of activities. Cole loved the beach again and even played putt putt for the first time. He didn't want to stop and wanted to hit everyone's balls. </div>

Baby boy is due in October 2014.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
Everything is going great. At 20 weeks today the baby is healthy, growing, and moving. I am being monitored closely even though the hemorrhage that caused Nora's anemia is very unlikely to happen again. We are very excited and feel very blessed that the Lord would grant us another child to add to our family. <div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<br /><div style="text-align: center;">
I've found that it is possible to experience so much grief and so much joy at the same time. We still have so much sadness in our hearts and lives over losing Nora even though we are filled with joy for this new baby boy. We have trusted God with our past and we continue to trust him with our future no matter what the road brings. </div>

It was one of the first things we started doing when we first moved to Knoxville. We had nowhere to go and not much to do without knowing anyone that we started a little class and have been going every since. I'm still friends with two women we met in the baby class :)<br />
<br />
At age 3 kids move out of the "mommy and me" classes into a regular class where just the kids go in with the teacher and parents wait outside. Cole has been going on days that I have been at work this year so it was really fun for me to go to their end of season "show" and see him in his new class and all he had learned. <br />
<br />
I love that this class is a place he can release energy, learn to follow directions, gain strength and coordination and have fun with friends. Cole loves it! (P.S. - there are more boys in his class, they just happened not to be there this particular week;) <br />

We've had some fun opportunities to get away with family and friends.<br />
We headed to Pigeon Forge with my sister and her family for a few days enjoying the mountains, Dollywood, & the Aquarium. <br />

We also had a great trip to the beach with some great friends last weekend. A spontaneous trip to Folly Beach was just what we needed during this busy spring season. We got a break, got to reconnect, and got to enjoy friends. <br />

It's a sad day this year. One of those "firsts" you have to get through after a loss. <br />
It was simple. There was a breakfast, a card, some flowers. <br />

Today I just can't help but pray for the women who have lost their own precious mom; for the women who long to have a child or another child and are desperately sad today; for the women like me who have a child in heaven and long to have them here on earth. I pray for God's peace in the sadness of this day and for hope in Christ. <br />
<br />

Coleman said randomly several times during the day "I love momma"<br />

That was good for my heart and soul. <br />

I know this was another day just to make it through and I'm hopeful that each year it will get easier even though I'll miss her the same. And I'm thankful that I get to be a momma to two precious ones. <br />

<br />
This day had so much more meaning for me this year. <br />
<br />
With Nora in heaven I constantly think of heaven more, much more than I ever did before. <br />
<br />
And I think about Jesus and what he did for us. That he died so that we could live. So that we could live in heaven one day. So that Nora could live in Heaven with him. And the great thing is that Jesus didn't just die. That's not the end. Because if it is then we wouldn't have any hope. But he rose from the dead. And that's amazing. AMAZING. It's even more amazing and even more meaningful to me now. Jesus conquered death for us. He conquered death for Nora. And I'm so thankful. So thankful that he loved us so much. That he continues to love us even now. That he hasn't forsaken us or forgotten us.<br />
<br />
I had this vision during worship at church yesterday. Just a thought really about Nora and her telling me "I'm OK here mama" "I'm happy" "I'm with Jesus and I'm loving it" and I cried while singing <i>Behold our God seated on His throne. </i>She's experiencing that right now, every day. She is growing up in the kingdom of Heaven. And that must be great. Much greater than growing up on this broken earth that I so badly wished and wanted for her and for us. Oh how I wish I could hold her. Oh how I anxiously await for our reunion in Heaven. How great it will be.<br />
<br />
<br />
Cole has been talking about Nora a lot lately. He wants to touch our baby he says. He likes to tell me that she was sick and that she's all better now that she's in heaven. Such sweet truths he is learning at such a young age. <br />

We spent the next morning at Animal Kingdom. It was a beautiful day and the warmest one of our days in Florida.<br />
Animal kingdom is like a big zoo. We definitely didn't spend enough time there to see everything but did some highlights!<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
We went on a safari ride! Cole loves animals so this was fun for us. </div>

We enjoyed walking around and meeting some more characters while the guys went to ride the roller coaster Everest. They said it was awesome. Ray took me back to ride it and the ride broke while we were in line so I didn't get to experience the awesomeness. BUT once it broke I wasn't about to get on it anyway :) </div>

There are not many kid friendly things to do but Cole did enjoy the boat ride in Mexico and the Nemo ride. It was a calm evening and everyone was tired so the kids just chilled as we walked them around in the strollers. </div>

He goes to work so early. So early that I am not out of the bed yet. Most of the time I do not even recall him getting up, getting ready and leaving for work. <br>
<br>
So tonight as I was searching for what to make for dinner I decided to whip some up to stick in the freezer (and eat a couple for dinner). <br>
<br>
Here's what you need:<br>
<br>
1 lb ground sausage<br>
11-12 eggs<br>
1 green pepper<br>
1 onion<br>
salsa<br>
cheese<br>
corn chips<br>
10 tortillas<br>
<br>
<br>
1. Brown the sausage and set it aside.<br>
2. Dice up the peppers (i used red and green) and onion and throw them in the pan to cook for a few minutes <br>
3. Crack the eggs into a separate bowl and whip with a fork. Then pour in the skillet with the veggies and scramble them up.<br>
4. Fill the tortillas with a little bit of sausage and a little bit of egg/veggie mixture. Top with cheese and salsa. Put a handful of crumbled corn chips on top and wrap up the tortilla.<br><br>* I found that putting the tortillas in the microwave for a few seconds made it easier to wrap them up. * <div><br></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5FZ-wcoFWBR7Rmk3GLO_qAN4diwCdn_ivsp6PqvnRb4q3ZHoZSTVxIP5JZTxAtvIgYleg8hxWmGvrQ3yBMamgbFzGVaONvW7kLNm7hVL74TQwCVyexIeyUcX-6obiy8mwFGP-EFSz6Ug/s640/blogger-image--1342109968.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5FZ-wcoFWBR7Rmk3GLO_qAN4diwCdn_ivsp6PqvnRb4q3ZHoZSTVxIP5JZTxAtvIgYleg8hxWmGvrQ3yBMamgbFzGVaONvW7kLNm7hVL74TQwCVyexIeyUcX-6obiy8mwFGP-EFSz6Ug/s640/blogger-image--1342109968.jpg"></a></div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br>

It feels like a thousand years ago. It feels like yesterday. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It hurts. It's painful. It's sad. It's beautiful. </div>

I feel so many things at any given time that it's so hard to describe the past 6 months. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I can move forward and backwards all at once. I want to hold on so tight to the past and move on to a hopeful future. </div>

Life feels different. Life feels normal. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It's hard and messy and many, many times I think, why me? </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

The beginning of the new year took us to sunny Florida (during the ice storm in Tennessee)!<br />
<br />
We took Cole on his first flight to Orlando to go to Disney!! or as he calls it - Mickey's Home! He didn't do great and didn't do terrible on the flight. It was pretty much what I expected from him. He was excited to be on an airplane but not so excited to sit still in a seat for 2 hours. <br />

It was such a great treat to be able to go on this trip, get away from reality for a few days and enjoy ourselves. Disney makes you happy. And that's what we were the entire trip: <b>Happy!</b></div>

With fast passes and a wait time app with maps we did minimal waiting for most rides. </div>

We decided to spend Christmas at my sister's house this year. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My sister and I are super close. talk every day, keep no secrets, would secretly (or not so secretly) love to be next door neighbors close. Our husbands think we're funny. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We think what are sisters for if not to be your best friend. <br />
<br />
So we had a fun, chaotic, hard, sad Christmas this year.<br />
<br />
We went to Nora's grave before heading to Laura's house. <br />
We took a small white poinsettia to leave there. <br />

It was good that we made it through our first Christmas without our daughter. We had some joys and distractions. Enjoyed feeling loved from all of our families and glad that it has past now. <br />
We'll always miss her but maybe this first one will be the hardest. <br />

I'm not a "crafter" but I did make some ornaments for me and all the grandparents for their tree that had Nora's hand and foot print in them. My original idea did not work so after lots of tries this is what I came up with. (With the help of my sweet friend, Rachel, and her embroidery machine!) </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I've just been making it through. </div>
<br />
<br />
We made it through the Christmas season of December and now we are making it through January. <br />
<br />
I wouldn't have said it but in some unknown form I guess I was thinking that things would be better in January. New year, new hope right? It is a new year and we do have hope but that doesn't mean things are automatically better. I've been hit this week with deep grief on just living the rest of our lives without Nora. I've been so focused on getting through the holidays that now I feel faced with life. <br />
<br />
<br />
I was reminded this morning that God raises up the valleys and the rough ground becomes level again. So quickly I can forget. So thankful that the glory of the Lord will be revealed one day. <br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
A voice of one calling: </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
"In the desert prepare the way for the Lord; </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
make straight in the wilderness a highway for our God. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Every valley shall be raised up</b>, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
every mountain and hill made low;</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>the rough ground shall become level</b>, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the rugged places a plain. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And the <b><i>glory of the Lord will be revealed</i></b>, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and all mankind together will see it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For the mouth of the Lord has spoken." </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />Isaiah 40:3-5</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<i><b>Up Next</b>: I will share some joy in the midst of sadness moments during December & January. Lots of fun with family lately.</i> <i> Lots of joy in our sweet Coleman</i>.</div>

Of course I've known they were coming and knew they wouldn't be what I expected them to be this year. You see, ever since January 14th - the day we found out that I was pregnant with Nora - I've been excited for this holiday. We moved into our house right after Christmas last year. And after 5 moves since coming to Tennessee I was excited to be settled and very much excited to spend the 2013 holidays in our new home with our 2 precious children.<br />
<br />
Then Nora died.<br />
<br />
Now it's almost Thanksgiving and every commercial is filled with Christmas songs and the stores are decked out. I read everyday what everyone is thankful for this month and the truth is that I don't feel thankful this year. I'd say I've been doing OK for a good little while. But as the Thanksgiving holiday creeps up I find myself caught under a wave of grief. My heart feels broken and very empty right now. Tears have been streaming down my face for days and I can't seem to come up for air or I just don't want to. I want to hide and wait out all the "thankfulness" going on around me. <br />
<br />
I decided to ask for wisdom from an older woman I know. She said this to me: <br />
<br />
<div>
"The "trick" to thankfulness is being thankful even when you do not
"feel" thankful or like anything about your life or what is happening in
your life. It becomes ...<b>being thankful BY FAITH.</b> The same way in
which you walk by your faith....you become thankful by your faith. You
are looking not to what is seen but to what is unseen."</div>
<br />
So this year I am trying to be thankful BY FAITH knowing that it is the Lord's will for me so HE will empower me. <br />
<br />
I am looking to what is unseen and I am thankful for 33 weeks and just under 4 hours with Nora. I am thankful for my sweet husband and my precious boy.<br />
I am thankful for Jesus always meeting me where I am and giving me the grace to go on. <br />

I had never experienced any life altering loss before now. I didn't know how to grieve or what it looked like. After 3 1/2 months I've learned a few things about grief. Here are some thoughts on the topic:<br />
<br />
Grief takes time.<br />
<br />
I have found myself really wanting to "hurry up" this grief process. Man, if I can just hurry up and do all these steps I'll feel better and can move on with my life. It doesn't work that way. I'm learning that. It is a process that takes time. You have to give it time. You have to take the time to heal. <br />
<br />
Grief is messy.<br />
<br />
It doesn't look like the defined 5 or 7 or 11 steps of grieving that you read about. I really wanted it to be that way. I wanted to have a schedule or process to stick to. You will be in denial for 3 weeks. You will be angry for 2 weeks. etc. I wanted to be given the steps and the process and the time table for making it to the other side of grief. It didn't work that way for me. I have experienced all of the steps of grieving but they come and go day by day, minute by minute. I can feel acceptance, sadness, anger all at one time. I can feel Ok one day and knocked down in grief the next. <br />
<br />
Grief comes in waves.<br />
<br />
The healing process isn't a steady stream uphill to the peak of healing. It is up and then back down some. Then up again and back down etc. Some days are good days but then one day I can get knocked down again. That just seems to be how it works. It's like the ocean. Waves come and go. The knock you down and you learn how to move through them. Sometimes you can see them coming. Sometimes you can't. <br />
<br />
Grief is different for everyone.<br />
<br />
No one can tell you how your grief process will be, how long it will take, or what it will look like for you. It is different for everyone even if you've suffered a similar loss.<br />
<br />
<br />
I'm sure I have much more to learn and live through when it comes to grief. I know I will grieve this loss for the rest of my life. But I also have hope and grace that will get me through it. <br />

We buried her in South Carolina at my grandmother's church cemetery where some other family members are buried. <br />

I was excited to finally visit the grave. I know that she isn't there. I know that she is in heaven.<br />
But the grave is just a place for us to go to remember her, to feel close, to bring healing.<br />
<br />
And we also wanted to take Coleman there. <br />
<br />
Cole and I went to buy flowers to take to her grave. He said he needed the blue flowers for her so yes we bought the died blue daisies and had blue die all over our hands.<br />

We had ordered Nora's gravestone a few weeks prior to the visit and they put it in the same day we were headed down. I was excited! For some reason excitement over a gravestone and being in a cemetery seem very normal to me. I guess it's part of my new normal. Before Nora I would have thought it to be weird emotions. I would get nervous being in a cemetery. It's funny how things change, <br />
We enjoyed time together in the cemetery as a family. Cole played at the grave and we just sat.<br />
It was good. It was healing. <br />
