there are no words

May 12th, 2008

I wish I could properly express to every single one of you what your comments and e-mails mean to me, but I’m not certain I could properly convey my gratitude, my love for all of you.

Whether you comment, e-mail or just visit.  Thank you for caring so much for me, my family and James and Jake.  Every communication that comes through to me from you feels like someone patting me on my back, telling me it’s going to be okay.  And I believe you, it will be okay.

I don’t know what I did to deserve this blessing that is my blog, or the bigger blessing that is ALL of you, but I am so grateful for every ounce of it.

I do not take a single one of you, whether I have met you or not, for granted.

You have been my lifeline and for that, I thank you.  I am in debt to you.  I am in awe of you.

From the very depths of my heart and soul – I love you and I thank you.  You are my friends, whether I have shared a cheeseburger with you or an e-mail, you are my friend.

If I could host a big ol’ blog party, you’d ALL be invited.  I’d even sing for you.

or not.

But I probably would.  Just so you are warned.

Thank you.  Thank you.  THANK YOU.

I have a fun announcement coming tomorrow – which is what this blog has been missing lately – FUN. (I’m not pregnant and I’m not giving away a trip or ice cream or anything like that – it’s just a blog announcement.  But that’s still fun.  Right?)

See you then, my friend.

    Dear Beth… Even in your saddest moments, your perfection of humanity comes through. And your beautiful humor is always a step away. Your children are so fortunate to have you as their Mommy, and Jake and James see this each and every moment too. I hope you understand the impact that you have on everyone you meet.

    Can’t wait for your news!

    Beth, your blog touches people. It really does. My best friend from high school lost her baby at 19 weeks (we were the exact same week in gestation). She has been reading your blog for a while but is not a poster…not even on my blog (so don’t feel bad). I know she has been glad to just read someone else’s words who understands how she feels. Anyway, your good days and your bad days matter to others. You really touch more people than you know. Hang in there!

    Beth, I missed your blog from yesterday. My heart just breaks for you. I’m so glad today is better. I wish I had all the comforting words in the world to give to you at this moment. I just want you to know how often you are in my thoughts. Just tonight I was watching Food Network and they had cheeseburgers on there and I thought of you. LOL!

    I can’t wait to hear about the surprise! :D

    Sometimes I think, should I leave a comment? Is the author even going to read it? 100 people before me have already said the same thing; does she really need to hear it from me too? But you make my thoughts, even if others before me have already expressed the same thing, seem so valuable. Thank you!

    Can’t wait to hear the announcement!
