Perhaps it is because of baby Fletcher being here. Perhaps it is because of the big 3 getting more mature, so I know more of what I'd be missing with every conversation with them. Perhaps it is because I get more emotional and sentimental with each passing day about all things mommy (as I do my best to appreciate each second with the 4 little souls I have at home). I could ponder all day.
Lawson would possibly be entering 1st grade. He'd be making everyone smile, he'd be adorable...instead he's making Wells say, "When I turn 5, I'll be ready to go to heaven" or Anne Lawson say about sweet Lisa and Barry's baby who didn't make it to birth, "Their baby can be Lawson's new friend in Heaven."
He's made us a more beautiful family - in more ways than I'll ever know. I thank God for Lawson's 8 weeks and for the last 7 years He's carried us through life without Lawson. I thank God for all of you reading this blog. Today, I especially thank God for Melissa and for God's design of "carrying each other's burdens to fulfill the law of Christ." (Gal 6:2)
