crisis mode

Posted in mousie, the big cheese by anonymouseandcheese on January 21, 2009

I don’t have much to say today.

I found out last night that some friends from college suddenly lost their 1 month old baby girl.  I haven’t been able to think of much else since.  I’ve been praying, but it doesn’t quite seem like enough.  When I go into crisis mode, I lay on the sofa and zone out.  When people in my life go into crisis mode, I want to jump into action – cook a meal, clean their house, take care of their older kids, etc.

I can’t do any of those things in this situation.

So I just sit and hold my own baby a little tighter and I kneel.

    My dear friends lost a baby a few years ago. We had babies the same age.

    It’s awful.

    Oh, that is just awful. I am so sorry. I will be praying for them and thinking of them.

    I’m so sorry – and will be praying for your friends.

    I think you are doing all you can – love on that baby girl of yours.
