Today I hosted, along with my mom, my cousin's sprinkle. A sprinkle is a party for a second baby (or 3rd etc.) instead of showering the mom to be with gifts we sprinkle her with diapers, wipes and clothes. Since she should have all of the basic stuff for a baby she will just need a little "sprinkling" ;] Anyways, it went so well! So many people made it out and I was really happy with how everything turned out. I am hoping my cousin Tarah posts the photos soon so I can share them! Cindy got a ton of super cute clothes for Miss Payton, who is due next month, and lots of diapers and wipes! I'm so glad we did this for her... she's such a great mom and she deserved to be spoiled for the day.
Cindy and I have an unfortunate connection... she has had a few miscarriages also. She had hers before her son Wyatt and all we blighted ovums. She has been such a sweetheart and has been very supportive to me throughout this whole process. If you had told me that when we got older, she and I would be close I would've just scoffed at you... Thank God for this girl! Her and I got to talking about the miscarriages and I of course started crying (thankfully after everyone was gone!) and she just kept hugging me and telling me to not be discouraged and to not give up... she didn't and now she's on baby #2. I was on the way to giving up completely, and I just can't. I know God wants to give me new hope... new hope for what he will do in my life. I am going to not give up... Thank you to Cindy for just being that silent strength I needed today.
