Have you ever thought about how much we look forward to the weekend. Especially if we work or if we are in school.
But, why don't we look forward to other days. Unless you have a maid or a nanny, you pretty much work on the weekend too.
Everyone despises Monday. Why? It is the start of another long drawn out week until that day we look forward too, Friday.
Maybe if you looked at Monday the way you did Friday, it wouldn't be so bad.
It brings up the point that maybe you should look at us grieving our child the way you look at those welcoming a newborn, like we matter. Because, we do. Monday does too.
Monday doesn't have to be awkward. We aren't either. You don't have to tread lightly around us. We have everything in common with that new parent except, we have actually loved and we have lost.
We want to talk about our babies too. We want everyone to talk about them and, we want them to matter to you like they do to us.
So, instead of treating Monday like we normally do, lets be a little more open. Besides that, Monday can actually be pretty awesome, especially when it is that awesome Holiday.
Lamentations 3:22-23 "His mercies are new every morning."
