"We don't even know who she is.."

During a four-day weekend, we usually have one "movie" night just for us. Just the two of us.. the boys go to bed early.. and we stay up late.. snuggled, and watching whatever movie fits our mood.

Tonight, we watched "The Invention of Lying."

Can I be honest for a second?

Certain aspects of this movie I found super-stupid... hence.. the first 20 minutes. A lot of it, I thouroughly enjoyed. I can relate to the main female in this movie (Sorry.. if your not Zoey Deschanel... IDK your name. True story. LOVE Zoey!), in the fact that I'm SOO out of hubbies league... yet... here I am, madly in love, and happy beyond words!

Anyways, in the midst of this... hubby made a profound statement.

"We don't even KNOW Sophia... isn't that awesome?"

NOW. Before you get all upset about this... I know it's true. We don't. I wish I did.. and I like to think I know she was mellow, and loved bubble-gum-ice cream... but really... she could be the complete opposite. Here is the part that excites me....

"We still get to LEARN things in Heaven!"

Ok.. so if your NOT a nerd.. this isn't thrilling.. it might be a bit intimidating.. but yet... It's biblical.

1 Corinthians 2:9
2 Corinthians 12:24

It has been a fear of mine, that once we get to heaven.. we no longer... uhm... learn? Live life as we know it? One tiny statement from husband, and I realize we have SO much to experience yet. Not just from our daughter.. but from those who passed before us.

So many questions... we will have answers. How amazing is that?

I can finally allow my mind to wander about what my grandfathers favorite childhood memory was... or what he LOVED on sunday for dinner, what he didn't like.

I finally have full faith that... I will know everyone who's ever walked this Earth.. and those who never got the chance to... and that, my dear friends, excites me more than you can know.

I can't wait to know my daughter, and our five early loss angels, for who they truely are in God's kingdom...

In the mean-time, I'm excited in the fact that, YOU, my readers.. my friends, my family... are apart of this world with me. We all get to learn about eachother, and then spend time with those we never got to know.. so please know this.

IF i don't know you, I'm so terribly sorry I didn't take the time! I hope, before we both pass, I get the chance to hold your hand, share a story and a smile, and love you.. but know if I don't.. if for some reason we don't cross paths.. know you are so beloved. NOT just by me.. by so many who cannot wait to know YOUR story. Please share it, in a blog, vlog, a facebook comment. Don't let your flaws, challenges, or anything stop you from being YOU. I hope, I pray, that some of you share traits my daughter has, and I cannot wait to make that connection in our resting place.
