A Love like no other

The scripture verse above has special significance for me. This year will be sixteen years ago that I lost my first child. ‘Lost’ seems such an odd word to use, like you’ve put down your car keys and now can’t remember where they are. No, I didn’t ‘lose’ him, I carried him, felt his flutterings within, saw him grow and move , held his tiny softness in my arms for what felt like only a moment and then, in a heartbeat, he was gone.
