Amy at The Bloom-Print Project

Thanks for bearing with me as I wind down an intense period at work. I am counting down the hours until 5pm Friday! I am exhausted, sleep-deprived and desperately in need of a vacation.

I want to introduce you to my friend Amy who blogs at The Bloom-Print Project. She has sent me the most touching emails, virtually holding my hand and hugging me during my time of suffering. While I’m dealing with my anger at God because of the miscarriage and slowly making steps to rebuild our relationship, I feel God may have sent Amy my way to help. She’s truly heaven sent.

The Bloom-Print Project

You’ll understand why when you read this post she wrote. The empathy, concern, and love is so apparent. I am blessed to call her a friend.

Here’s a You Tube video to the lullaby at the end of the post. It’s a beautiful song.

    That was absolutely beautiful. I honestly don’t think I could have made it through some of my rough patches without my friends. They are such a blessing. I’m so glad that you and Amy have found each other. –Lisa
