Our precious family of four was changed in an instant. We knew Landry for only a short time but he will live in our hearts and minds forever. Landry James will always be apart of us and our family.I love reading other blogs and some that I read are friends and some are strangers. I have recently found some sites from Mother's who have have lost babies and have felt a connection to them. Therefore, if you feel the urge then please share our story and blog with others. My hope is that one day someone will click on our blog and be able to relate to our tragic journey.
I still have a lot more to share about our story and I will get their soon but please continue to read and comment.

You do not know me. But we both grew up in Temple. I am a year or two younger. I came across your blog some time ago and followed some of your journey during this pregnancy. I am 30weeks pregnant now and have a son that turned 2yrs in July. Your loss of Landry broke my heart. I am amazed by your strength and faith. And the courage you have to share this very tender time in your life is a testament to many that you may not even be aware of. I will pray for comfort and peace for your family.

I will continue to read and pray for you. I pray for you throughout the day because I just can not imagine the heartache you feel. I know that the Heavenly Father is the only one who can bring the comfort and healing you and your family need. I love reading your posts and check throughout the day to learn more about Landry and how you are doing. You are a very strong woman of God, Holly. Love you!
Holly, I'm so glad you have been blogging about sweet Landry. I love to read what you have written. Thank you for having the courage to share. You are in my prayers!
As a Mommy myself, my heart ached for you and your family when I read that you lost your precious baby boy and I have made sure to mention you in my prayers. Mark and I have been blessed with 3 daughters, but also had a baby that never made it into our arms. I commend you for processing and writing and sharing. I can imagine how difficult, but therapeutic as well. Hang in there and don't ever feel like it's not okay to grieve or that there is a time limit for your wounded heart.
I sent this to Lauren, but not sure if she has yet shared it with you. This poem has given me some comfort and hope for a joyful future.
ON SORROW
Some of you say, “Joy is greater than sorrow,”
And others say, “Sorrow is the greater.”
But I say to you,
They are inseparable…
The deeper that sorrow carves into your being
The more joy you can contain.

Holly,
Thank you for your post! I check your blog often and pray for you as you begin to share Landry's story. He has touched so many people in just the few days of life he was on this earth. He will continue to touch even more lives as he lives his eternity in Heaven!
