You Moved Us
From Stephanie-
This week I found Crazy Days Of Summer's The Swing to be touching and a bit of a searching of my own heart and desire to protect my children but still allow them to be kids.
From Megan-
I try not to think too far ahead into my children's lives, as each age definitely brings its own set of worries and wonders, but the post Letting Go, by Jeanne at A Hen's Pace reminded me to keep praying for the tweens and teens that I love.
From Veronica-
Slouching Mom writes poignantly about the sense of loss following her hysterectomy, and the slow, unexpected nature of grief in her post Today I'm Feeling Barren, Thank You Very Much.
From Kelly-
How does an only child cope with having four kids of her own? Lisa @ Take 90 West has a great perspective in her post Some Things Are Worth Waiting For.
From Beck-
I'm blown away by When Bad Things Happen… by Holy Experience.
What moved you?

I especially enjoyed When Bad Things Happen by Holy Experience. And I couldn't help but think of this post from June by LindaJ at Why Do These Kids Keep Calling Me Mom?

Great links, as always. I love that the other blogs posts were all from blogs I don't read.
I am daily amazed at the depth of talent out there.

The Holy Experience was so good - so thought provoking - I added it to my feed reader. Beautiful writing to be sure.

"When Bad Things Happen" was absolutely the best post I've read in a long while. Thanks so much for the link.

Megan–
I've been on vacation and just figured out where the commentors on that Letting Go post were coming from…Thanks for the link! And for your prayers for my daughter.
