So many blessings come from hard trials. Some blessings we have to look for and others are right in front of our face. This has rung so true for our little family. Is it fair that I have lost one of my sweet little girls and others do not have to lose one of their children? NO, but is it fair that I have had beautiful blessings and wonderful spiritual experiences that others may never get to experience? If we as a family wouldn't have had to go through this trial then we may not have had the opportunity to experience the tender mercies in our lives. It is still hard for me at times to see other kids Kambers age playing and getting to run into their mothers arms and give them a hug. I miss these experiences with my Kamber. I just have to wait a little longer for my hug and kisses, I take that back I feel her love everyday and I think the day that I get to hug and kiss her and feel her little body in my arms it may be even more wonderful that it did here on earth. For today I can smile thinking about it and rejoice in it.
Thanks for the memories and please continue to send any memories!

Jenn dear what a sweet little video you have of kamper. I miss seeing Major play with Kamper so much when we are together. You are doing so well, I know sometimes you dont think so, but soooo... many people are impressed with how you are doing given your circumstance. We are here for you and your sweet family we love you guys. Candi
Jenn,
i just found your blog, hope you don't mind. i have to say that i think about you & your family almost every day. your trial has made such a strong impression in my life to slow down & soak up each moment i spend with my kids. Something i have to remind myself constantly to do! You & Ethan's talk at Kamber's funeral was so beautiful & inspiring, i just want to thank you for sharing & being so open about your feelings. i'm sure your influence is felt this same way by many others. i am in awe at the strength you are showing through your actions & your testimony. All of your girls are so lucky to have you as their mother. Thank you for being such a great example.
