Beth, you will be top most in my thoughts and prayers tomorrow…
With all the the love and prayers coming your way, you’ll get through tomorrow. Love you!
You’re in my prayers now more than ever. Angels will be watching over you tomorrow.
My thoughts, my prayers, and my heart are with you, Beth.
Today, is whatever it is. But, please know that you are being held in on big internet hug today. Prayers.
I woke up this morning, thinking of you, and checked my email to see that my mother-in-law made a way too generous donation on my March for Babies page. A year later, James and Jake are still touching so many people, and so are you. Sending so much love your way today.
We will never forget about you and will always pray for you.
Can you feel it? That is all our love and strength we, your adoring readers, have…..and today we send it to you.
Beth,
Today as everday I will think of you and your boys and wish I could just hug you, comfort you and help to bring you the extra strength you will need. Follow your heart today. DOn’t put any pressure on yourself and go with the flow. James and Jake will be helping to guide you threw this day from heaven.
I am thinking of you today Beth. My prayers are going out to you, Brian and the kids.
Hey honey. I hope your day is filled with sunshine and hope today. I have been thinking about you so much and when I read Stephanie’s post I just about lost it. You are so blessed to have such wonderful women in your life who love and support you whether they’re fortunate to be with you in person or just a commenter on your blog to offer a word of encouragement. I will continue to offer up prayer for you and your family. I know today is not going to be an easy day for you, but we are all remembering your sweet twin boys, James and Jake today more than ever. I love you Beth!
You’re in my thoughts and prayers today.
Thinking of you and your family today and every day! Sending lots of love your way.

Beth: I am a new follower, went back to read your post from one year ago and I am sitting here in tears. I’m deeply sorry for your loss. Your perspective on this tragedy humbles me. What better way to honor those precious little boys than to focus on the blessing they were to you while they were here. Today I will be thinking of you, remembering those sweet little ones, and praying you keep finding peace and comfort in the moments you had with them. (((HUGS)))
Beth,
I am crying with you right now. I have toddler twin boys and James and Jake have forever changed the way I mother them. My boys are loved more deeply and appreciated more fully because of the gift your boys gave us. My boys have been very sick recently with “kid sicknesses” things that are very hard for the moment but will be forgotton in the “big picture”. It is hard not to become frustrated at 3 am when they refuse to be put down. That is when I think of James and Jake and I hug them tighter.
What you are doing with your writing is touching so many people that you will probably never know.
Your boys will NEVER be forgotton. I will still be thinking of them when my Matt and Danny are teenagers that drive me crazy, when they go away to college, and when (God willing) they become parents themselves.
I am SO sorry for your pain and I am SO greatful for your writing. You are in my prayers.
I am so sorry for your loss and amazed by your insight, strength and hope. I treasure the things you have said today. I am so very glad you have shared James and Jake with others, I know that story can be so personal and harsh to share….but by saying it it is like that labor of love you talk about. Now there is one more person (me) who knows your boys and they are not forgotten. They are larger than life itself.

Sincere thoughts and prayers to your way! The twins were so lucky to have you as their mommy.

Beth I want to share with you some things that I know. I know these two boys will never be forgotten because they are with our Heavenly Father and one day you will be with them again forever. I know God has a plan for each person and that Jake and James fulfilled the plan that God had and passed this mortal test perfect and pure to again return to the side of their Heavenly Father. I know that they love you and miss you but that they know it’s not forever and look forward to the day that they can be reunited with you once more.
I did not find your blog until today but nevertheless my prayers are with you. Your strength amazes me, although I am sure it is something you work on constantly. May you an your precious little boys continue to touch people as you did me!
