October Perfect Post
There are some posts that tear me up emotionally and my heart breaks for some of the things my favorite bloggers have been through. I truly wonder if I could go on had these things happened to me. (I mean, mah Gawd, I whined for days over a broken television.)
These writers inspire me to be a better person, a better wife, a better mother, a better daughter, a better friend. I want to reach through this screen and take them in my arms and hug them, because I know, with all my heart, how much better I feel when Mr. Hot or Shortman give me a soul-enveloping, heal-everything, warm-away-the-fear hug.
When I read RedNeck Mommy’s post about her Bug - her darling son, I broke down. Coming so soon on the news that they had been approved by the adoption agency, I can’t imagine the swing of emotions that she had to have been feeling. And yet, she keeps her sense of humor - her wicked, wicked, sense of humor - believe me, y’all - you’ll want to go along for the ride. Hang on tight and bring your favorite tissues and incontinence panties.
Come help me cheer for RNM. She wrote my pick for October’s Perfect Post - and if you want to get in on the Perfect Post Awards, go see Kimberly and Lindsay - the originators of the Perfect Post award.







That one was amazing. I had to beat the baby off the keyboard so I could comment that day.
I’m not sure I have it in me to read another blog about a lost child, but I’ll give it a whirl. So far this month, I’ve read about a baby dying because his mom mad MRSA and didn’t know it, twin boys born full term and stillborn, and a baby who was taken into foster care for reasons the parents still don’t understand. I’m all wrung out from all this vicarious weeping.
What an amazing post. Thanks for sharing.
I was tearing up reading the post. Wow… words are at a loss again.
My god, how awful. How utterly awful.
I can barely type right now I’m crying so hard. I’ve never read her blog before, and after reading that post I went back and read and read until I couldn’t see through my tears.
I don’t know why human beings are made to suffer through things like that. And, I know she has survived and is a better person for it… but, life is just so cruel and unfair sometimes.
Oh my gosh. Weeping.
