questions
life has been a series of questions and answers, and our family life since isaiah died has just been a continuation of the series. today i wondered whether or not we should change the name of this blog like we changed the message on our voicemail. this hasn't really been a place we've used for much of anything since may, when it fed our need to communicate with lots of interested people at once, and it provided a good outlet in the midst of stressful times.
so i don't know the answer- to the blog question or otherwise. but we've been walking together the whole time--in the redwoods over thanksgiving as shown above--and through ordinary life and all of its challenges. memories of isaiah are with us always- and i think they always will be. i hope so at least.
wishing peace over the winter holidays.

Well I know I come back sometimes to regain some of the insight that you both (all) have shared, sometimes to remind myself what a beautiful thing this life is that are graced with and sometimes to see if there is anything new with some of my favorite people. So if I may be the lone voice, let it be this...blog when you want, but i have missed you all. To a safe winter and blessings to all who read...peace andibwalsh
Dear Ones, Be assured that grandma and grandpa Voss still check in from time to time, should either of you feel moved to share your thoughts and/or life with us. Questions are good and sometimes answers will come. Isaiah is frequently on our minds and always in our hearts.
Do hold one another's hands as you walk - together you can wander through the redwoods, bask in the new discoveries Joey makes each day and remember you are loved!GGV
Doing my weekly across the board blog check and despite having emailed with Jen today, here I am posting a comment (and right after Andi, I might add!). I feel she has put it best and so echo her sentiments.
Affectionately and Fondly,

mmm...keep the blog name. it is a good thing. you are good people. sometimes even the most random of "blog watchers" (me) checks this with anticipation of an insight into life beyond my own. this is a good thing. i need it. you need it. i would dare say we all need it.
peace and love,

Ah, the beauty of memories, they last forever! It has been over 22 years since our daughter of 17 years passed away and I still treasure the memories of the little girl who loved Christmas, dogs, her family and life itself. This is a very difficult time for you and the holiday season comes at you full force but, just as you have been doing, you will face this challenge and treasure the memories of Christmas past and know that Isaiah is in Heaven this year. Peace and love to your family.
Dear Ones, We often take a short trip to the blog to see if either of you is inspired to share thoughts, feelings or information with the broader community of those who love you. We, too, have Isaiah in our thoughts often as we thank God for the gift he has been to all of us. Happy memories can still bring a smile though realization of our loss still hurts our hearts, as well. We wish you peace and we know God still holds you in the palm of His hand. GGV
