I thought of baby James and how fitting the song was for him. I had a smile on my face as I thought about him and the amazing love you both had for him. He truly was blessed to have you both as his parents. Continue to write wherever you may chose. It is a true outlet. From Sicily your way.

That's when you need a shoulder the most. Please know that I as well as many others are continuing to pray for you even more now!

James has had such a profound impact on me, as my faith has been tenuous at best as of late. James has opened a piece of my heart, as he is proof there are angels, both with us and watching over us. I know James is in heaven, how beautiful it must be there now. How the heavens will rejoice when you are all united once again.Mom to Woodchuckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10364059019925186959noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9155082621754325562.post-32110818929653906902011-07-23T23:26:06.094-05:002011-07-23T23:26:06.094-05:00Just wanted to let you know I have not stopped thi...Just wanted to let you know I have not stopped thinking of you guys and praying for you.Marissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00874664591789850827noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9155082621754325562.post-29306896584962846542011-07-23T21:48:26.123-05:002011-07-23T21:48:26.123-05:00I am praying for you in PIttsburgh, PA :-).

I couldn't stop talking about your sweet baby and his angel's eyes. <br /><br />I learned of James' troubles through your neighbors and then contacted as many prayer warriors as I could find. We all lifted James and your family up in prayer, praying for the comfort and strength that only God can provide. <br /><br />There are no possible words to describe how devastated you must be and how sorry we all are at your loss. Ron and Pat are absolutely heartbroken; they loved Baby James. We know God will carry you through and we pray that you and your family will heal and find peace. We take comfort in knowing that your baby James is resting in the arms of Jesus, free from harm and worry. <br /><br />May God Bless You and Protect You in this time of mourning and grieving.<br /><br />Lori MillsGGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02055771614188866156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9155082621754325562.post-86314016852479449192011-07-23T03:33:06.890-05:002011-07-23T03:33:06.890-05:00Thank you for sharing with us.

My thoughts veer toward you all regularly throughout the day. I suppose I feel a strong connection (though we've only spoken on the phone one time) because my Gavin had AT/RT as well. My heart breaks that James didn't survive this beast of a cancer. Thank you for sharing about how his incisions were better so quickly after he passed. Such amazing evidence of his instantaneous healing. A gift to you from God. May you feel God's presence each day. <br /><br />Much love,<br />Stacie Smith<br />www.smithscooptexas.blogspot.com <br />staciesmith19@hotmail.comStaciehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08667500571428120967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9155082621754325562.post-19570431106141107612011-07-22T17:41:19.352-05:002011-07-22T17:41:19.352-05:00Oh, Tamara, what a beautiful picture!

Give Him every emotion, all the sorrow and all the anger. He has big, big shoulders, He can handle it and He can understand it. He lost a Son too.
