I wish i new how to answer that question. But I dont.
In case you didnt know about a week ago Matts sister in law went into the hospital. She was 5 months pregnant and but on bed rest for the remainder of her pregnancy. It is my understanding that her cervix was too thin to hold the baby.
Saturday morning at 445 am she lost the baby. It is her second miscarriage.
Matt was really upset and kept asking why do bad things happen to good people. I wish I had a good answer to tell him but I dont.
They named the baby Timothy Nathan. I found this interesting is because the name Timothy means child of God. I know this is because my brothers name is Timothy and my mom told me. I found that interesting. I wonder if they knew the meaning of the name and that is why they chose that.
So I will be attending a funeral tomorrow for a baby. I am not looking forward to it. I am going to try extra hard to be strong for Matt because he was very emotional on Saturday when we got the news.
I have this little tiny ping of guilt about everything because when I first found out she was pregnant I was a little mad because of the timing of everything. But I quickly got over it and was really excited to be a "real" aunt.
I guess God has his reasons for everything. Sometimes I wish I knew what they are.
