Watched Stand Up To Cancer and Taylor Swifts sang a new song, about a little boy. Feeling like it could have been about Alec too. Noone can not cry at this song, it's heartbreaking, it is the real story of the pain and sorrow of losing your child. But one verse got me to to think of the blessing ;
"I really thought some miracle would see us through, But what if the miracle was even getting one moment with you"
I have often thought, why do others get to have their family, whole and happy. Why do they have all their children safe in their arms, why couldn't Alec stay here with us.
And I then think , but I am so lucky and blessed to be Alec's Mama, I am the one who received this greatest gift. Alec could've chosen anyone and he chose us. We get to be Alec's Mom, Dad and sister, they don't. We are the ones who are so blessed. We are the ones who got to love and care for Alec and got to be touched the deepest by his Great and Powerful Love. We get to have the greatest love story between a Mama and her beautiful boy, a Dada and his most precious son, a sister and her sweetest loving brother.
I know this to be true, but it doesn't stop the wishing Al was still here with us.
We truly thought a miracle would see us through and that Alec would be healed and here in our arms, just like before, but maybe the miracle was that Alec was ours , and he gave us the best 8 years of our lives.
