Busy...moving

Sorry I haven't posted a new blog lately. Our family has been incredibly busy in a good way. We're in the process of moving. A big event in our lives since we have only lived in one place together. We're actually going to be living in the same house, only a different location.
All of this has kept me quite busy so there's little time to think about "stuff". However, I still think of Gabriel everyday and miss him everyday. I'm really looking forward to setting up a "place" for him in our house at our new location. And have been thinking about it a lot.

On another note...a while back I was talking to a mother about the birth of her new baby boy. And I can say for the first time, I wasn't jealous or angry or annoyed. I was genuinely happy for her. I didn't have to pretend at all! It was such a wonderful feeling! She asked me if I had a son...and I told her that I did but that he passed away. I've been finding it easier to tell people of him. I don't tell everyone, it depends on the situation and the person. But mentioning him keeps him alive in some way. That yes, he did exist. And it still talk about him. I'm still comparing this pregnancy to his and Halayna's.

All in all, I've been feeling pretty good. Although, when I was packing, I was a little heartbroken at the fact, I wasn't packing any boy toys or boy clothes. But got through it and will still get through it as we go to unpack the lack of boy things.

As always, I'm very thankful for your continued prayers!
