Prayers for wee ones

I've been waiting and postponing this post as they weren't my words to tell. My heart has ached and my cheeks have been covered in tears.

I feel that I can now share with you an update on my best friend's little babies. I know many of you have taken the button and showered my friend with prayers, so I figured an update was due.

My dear, sweet friend lost her loving Benjamin Ray Walkup on March 5, 2010. I can't tell you or describe to you the pain and sadness I felt in my heart for Bailey, her family, and her son, Ben. No mother should have to endure what she has, but she's done it with amazing grace and led by God's good hand.

Dear little Ben,
Your mother and father were so excited about you. They loved you more than words could say -- your sweet little fingers to your sweet little toes. They showered you in love. We all prayed for you and hoped you would overcome, but the good Lord had another plan for you -- to sit in His arms and watch over your family. You gave the biggest sacrifice by keeping your mother and brother alive. You will live on in our hearts forever.

Bailey,
You are a wonderful mother and a great friend. You have shown courage in the darkest of times. I love you and I am here for you.

Jack is still fighting, but seems to be doing better. You can stay up-to-date by reading Bailey's blog. There's also some really cute updated pictures of little jack on B's blog. Please keep him in your prayers. You go Jack! Keep on fighting buddy. p.s. I think you look like your daddy!!

Please pray for my friend and her family that they find peace in the most troubling of times. Pray they find comfort in knowing their sweet Ben is now in the arms of the Lord, and that baby Jack will continue to fight and get well so he can go home to his momma and daddy.

Love ya B.
