Lord prepare me...

When I was pregnant with Gabriel I would often sing to him while driving home from work.  He was always very active during this time so I knew he was awake and was hoping he could hear me.  I usually sang the same hymn...it always seemed like the perfect hymn to sing to him while in the womb....Lord prepare me to be a sanctuary.


I shared this story at his memorial and used the hymn in his memorial video.  I haven't talked about it since.

Tonight Tom's sister Lucy gave us a precious gift...how sweet of her to think of us during this difficult time, but even sweeter that she remembered how special this hymn was to us.  Its a carving of the words to the hymn...on the side is an angel...perfect!
