30 Days of THANKS {{day 8}}

I'm Thankful for being healthy and for not having an illness

{{as well as my Prissy Pants and my family}}

Now being a Mommy, I can't even begin to imagine how parents deal and go through any kind of illness, either dealing with it themselves or with their child.

Tears are forming as I type this.

And even worse, I don't know how parents deal with losing a child.

The only thing that gets me through when this happens, 

is knowing that they are truly in a better place and in good hands!

I truly believe in "everything happens for a reason"

I've had to learn (and am still learning and coping with a great loss of my own)

although this person was not my family, (though I did think of him as), it doesn't make it hurt any less.

When horrible things happen, I turn to Him, and my faith in Him becomes stronger-

although I may never understand "why", 

I believe and trust in Him that this is how it's meant to be and it is part of a greater plan!

(although I would most likely end up in a mental hospital if something happened to my Prissy pants)

BUT 

I would still trust in Him and His plan- but just be all medicated to deal with it!
