I'm Sad The Angels Get To Play With You Before I Do

These are the words Cynthiaa said to her son Aiden as she held him in her arms upon his birth.

Cynthiaa was due to deliver her son in just 2 weeks. But on Monday, February 2, when she went to her routine doctor’s appointment she learned that her beautiful baby boy had passed away due to umbilical cord strangulation. They immediately scheduled her for a C-Section and Aiden James was born into heaven at 11:23 that morning.

This is a mother who wants her baby back. She wants everything to be "fixed". God has a plan for all of us and only in time will we know what that is. In the heart of grief it is so hard, nearly impossible, to imagine what His plan could possibly be. He whispers to us through our pain that there is a life beyond the present suffering. He sits silently with us in our anguish, in the moments that are so heavy and unimaginable, the ones that we cannot escape or blink away. He reminds us that the seemingly endless grief is but a moment that will fade in the vast expanse of the Life to come.

He promises, trust in Him, He will carry us through this, there will be Goodness, but it is difficult to see beyond our grief at the moment.

Please pray for Cynthiaa and that she lets Him carry her right now. Pray He will comfort her and hold her close. Pray that she will hear His whispers and know that she is not alone.

To read more about Cynthiaa and Aiden please read her blog here.

On Wednesday, February 11th, there is going to be a balloon release for Angel Aiden. They are looking for everyone possible to join in. If you could release a blue balloon (or a few of them..your choice) and take a picture, then email it, they would like to put them into an album, showing all the places that balloons were released for Angel Aiden.

If you would like to participate...THANK YOU...please spread the word. Contact information is:
