Pregnancy Loss Awareness Day.

As some of you may know today 10/15/14 was Pregnancy Loss Awareness day.
This has to be one of the singularly hardest day for a lot of parents to try and remember and make known. Though a pregnancy is lost, that baby will never be forgotten. I have been so incredibly blessed to have had two uncomplicated "normal", and I say that meaning a typical pregnancy with no health issues. With those pregnancies the two greatest gifts God has ever bestowed upon me. I hope I'm not coming off braggy, but humbled. I do however have quite a few friends who have suffered and lived through this travesty and my heart goes out to you wholeheartedly. I read a blog from a woman who had a miscarriage, having a couple ladies I consider myself close with recently going through the same, and I know everyone reacts differently. I really tried to take this woman's advice. She explains how most woman who have recently lost a pregnancy don't wish to talk about it, but to grieve. With their partners and family. They don't want the world to talk about it, like a gossip session. They don't really want you bugging them asking what they need or want, because what they really and want is their precious baby back. I cannot fathom that kind of pain. If you do know someone going through this please, just get on your knees, and pray. Pray for the family, and for the mother and father. Pray they find comfort and peace in their hearts. Pray they know there is a reason, and not to take it out on God. But to take comfort in Him knowing He is there. If she needs a hug, be there. Cook her a meal and silently leave it, if she wants to talk she will. Don't pressure her. And if you are reading this, and have been through a pregnancy loss, know you always ALWAYS have a friend in the Jesus and a friend in me. Even if you don't want Him, he's there. Even if you don't think you're worthy, He's there. Waiting for you with open arms. 

If you need a prayer tonight, tomorrow, or ever PLEASE let me know. I love all of you! Even if I don't know you I'm thinking of your precious babies, especially today.


-Stay Sassy, Stay Blessed.

P.S. 
I'm super Excited to announce a new friend/blogger buddy Hope will be on my blog sometime next month to talk about epilepsy awareness! I'm so excited to have my first blog visitor! I think it's something VERY important that should be discussed, should you ever find yourself in a situation where someone is having a seizure, so you know how to help that person as much as possible.
