Seven Things I Wish Someone Had Said To Me When My Baby Was In The NICU
This is a post I’ve considered writing for a long time. It’s been a couple years since my 12 week NICU experience and the following months of feeding tube drama, yet I’ll be honest, some of the wounds still haven’t healed. In truth my daughter had very little going on with her compared to all […]
Bleeding Love – A Heart Refined By Fire

Most Incredible of Thoughts
Most Incredible of Thoughts A Poem, By Joy Aletheia Stevens ~ There is a thought, To big to contemplate, To enormous to be sought, Too magnanimous to formulate. ~ This thought cannot be grasped, Most certainly can’t be hidden.
