Another Angel free of cancer

My dear readers of my blog. I am so sorry to have been absent for so long. The summer was crazy and the fall has been even busier.

I'm actually asking you to pray for dear friends of mine whose son passed away on Sunday evening the 18th November from brain cancer. Joey lived to be 9 years and 3 1/2 months old. Yes we know he is in a better place but we as humans would rather have him here.

Our family is grieving once again with them. Our two sons were born two days apart and did know each other for about 6 months or so when they were 5. As the Kellers prepare for the funeral and burial please pray for the Lord to surround them with peace, with good hugs from friends and for the ability to cry and release all the built up emotions from the last 2 years.
Thank you.

I will try to put a photo in here of him. So similiar to my Brendon whose picture is a few posts down in this blog.

 

Thanks and good night.
Julie

Oh to be a Mum of an Angel!

"For you created my inmost being; You knit me together in my mother's womb.
I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Your works are wonderful, I know that full well....
Your eyes saw my unformed body.
All the days ordained for me were written in Your book before one of them came to be.
Psalm 159:13-14

The verses above I said in a play when I was only 24 years old. God has always reminded me of how special each child is as I have gone through my pregnancies and watched my friends around me have children.
Brendon was a warrior and still is an inspiration to many people even though he is no longer on earth.

This precious beautiful boy was prayed for, conceived and birthed and growing up fast way before we knew just how short his life would be.
Dear sweet,  adorable Brendon - thanks for being an awesome, brave little boy. You had more courage than I know of anyone!

I am so privileged to be your Mum and so blessed to have that for 5 1/4 years. Thank you Lord for blessing our family with Brendon.

"Rejoice in the Lord always and again I say Rejoice"
