I too have that video playing n my head. I hear the things he may have said, or how he cried out. I was not even the one who found Brayden or took him out of the pool.. yet I have created these things that haunt me. <br />God does love them more... it does not remove the pain, but it comforts. I too choose to believe that God took my sweet Brayden quickly and silently. <br />I want so badly to just shake my older son and demand he tells me every detail of what happened, what he saw, heard... <br />Thank you for your honesty in sharing this post. Your words speak right to me and are such a comfort. <br />Thank you for encouraging me... <br />Blessings, <br />MichelleMommyof3giftshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09330938113921105832noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2809393053053740938.post-89897204500846247992010-05-06T20:49:00.281-07:002010-05-06T20:49:00.281-07:00My heart is always with you!

Praise God.<br /><br />I relive the moments over and over of finding my sweet baby Mark in the water. I imagine what he was thinking...where is my mommy? I also imagine what he felt. Is drowning painful? How long did he struggle before he went unconcious? It all plagues me to the point of wanting to die myself. I just can't believe that I wasn't there...to save him. <br /><br />Someone reading this might think it unfair of me to mention such horrid things...but you and I both know that there isn't anything that anyone could say that would suprise us. We have already thought it all and even think about it all day long.<br /><br />I have cried out to God to release me from these painful thoughts that torment me and to a great extent, He has. I have been told by several of my Christian brothers and sisters to imagine Jesus reaching down and picking Mark up right out of the water. I have been told that God probably didn't let him suffer...although I have a hard time believing that since suffering is often a part of death...whomever it is.<br /><br />It all helps, as does your beautiful post about Jesus loving our children more than we ever could. I cling to that and hope and trust in that fact. <br /><br />I just wish that I didn't have to try so hard to convince myself of the truth. <br /><br />Until we hold them again,<br />AngieMark's Mommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14603130027027062924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2809393053053740938.post-37901408228636414382010-05-06T11:26:12.166-07:002010-05-06T11:26:12.166-07:00You probably noticed that I don't mind asking ...You probably noticed that I don't mind asking questions about Laynee, how she was, with this or that situation, little bits about her or the accident or the time surrounding it. But this is one question I've not had the courage to ask, but I have always wondered about it. I wondered if you thought about this. I wondered if it haunted you. Because I think about what her thoughts were, and I didn't even personally get the chance to know her. The times I've awakened thinking of you guys, THIS is always the part that gets me the most, because THIS is the part that would nag at ME the most, I believe, if I were in that situation. <br /><br />What wise things your aunt said. And what a blessing to have the reassurances of the Lord as you cry out to Him. How do people handle this when they don't have Him to cry to and rely on?? <br /><br />As always, I'm blessed, humbled, and edified by your words... you may still be human, but you're a pretty special one. :o)RKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11259757888643034394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2809393053053740938.post-28551521246562660392010-05-06T09:56:40.745-07:002010-05-06T09:56:40.745-07:00Karol,
