Two years ago I had several of the hardest days of my life, as Shane and I said goodbye to our son Markham. We had been waiting so long for a child of our own, and was extremely hard when that was taken away from us. This lesson although hard was one of the most rewarding lessons I have ever learned.
Last year as the one year mark hit, I was sad and depressed and wanted nothing better then to just skip the day entirely. I kept waiting for those days to surface this year, but I can honestly say that those feelings never surfaced this year. Don't get me wrong I miss Markham every day, and it does still hurt, but I am truly blessed by my faith, and knowing that Shane and I will see our son again because we have an eternal family.
I am so thankful for the knowledge that I have of the gospel and how it brings me peace. I am so grateful for all the support and prayers that have been said on our behalf. I have a testimony of the gospel, and of how our Savior lived and died for each of us. He lives!!! This I know with all my heart, and I thank him everyday for all he has given me in this life. I truly am so grateful!!!!
Thanks again to all of you who have kept us in your prayers and thoughts. We love you all!!!!!
