Yesterday morning a young boy passed from the arms of his parents into the arms of Jesus.
You can see his picture and something sweet my Sarah wrote about him.

I'm So Sad and I Didn't Even Know Her
I popped over to my dear friend Isabelle's blog. Some of you remember she organized an international (but mostly French) circle of seamstresses to sew up Katrina Kits with me back in 05.
Well, I just read her blog (where she posts her lovely embroidery) and she announced the death of a mutual blogger friend, Renee.
Renee'. I didn't even know her except through her very sweet and uplifting comments on my blog. She taught me little things, and I especially appeciated her lesson about myrrh. She embroidered with a passion for Christ. Her works were portrayals of the life of Christ, and when she blogged, biligually, Renee always imparted the gospel. This woman raised many children, not all her biological ones and has a real heart for the poor and needy. I was curious that she found my piddly little life so fascinating, the way we do things here that are different for her in France.
She hand't commented for quite a while, nor had I visited her blog recently, so I was shocked to hear the news on Isabelle's blog. (KittyCouture). She had been in the hospital since before Christmas with lung trouble, according to the last post her daughter wrote for her. She would be undergoing a risky surgery on Jan 17th.
Oh, I am crying over this loss. This is the first time I've ever lost a blogging friend. Though I didn't know her personally, she left an impression on my heart. All I can say is, I am sorry that her family has lost such a dear mum. She is rejoicing in God's arms now.
