Things that are hard

   I haven't posted much lately, but not because I haven't had anything to say but because I was putting off writing this post and I needed to be able to get my thoughts together enough to do it.  I am not going to be posting on this blog any more; I have been trying to quit for a couple of months now and I guess it feels like another "leaving him behind" moment.  I have exhausted my picture of him for the most part.  I started this blog to record his pictures and memories and that has been accomplished; along the way, it developed into something a little more and for that I am grateful, but I feel as though it is time to bring it to an end.  I'll still be blogging on my other blog and I am sure it will include things about Knox and my writings from here will carry over to our family blog because he is still a part of our family.
    I want to thank again all of you that have been supportive of our family.  Thank you for all the notes, the prayers, the comments and messages.  I appreciated all of them even if I wasn't able to respond at the time I received them.  This blog will stay where it is; the pictures and stories will be here for viewing and reading and maybe they will be a comfort to someone down the road.

Knoxmemories has been such a blessing to me many, many times. Your honesty about your grief, faith, love, hope, questions, etc. have been an encouragement and an example of how the Lord is our strength in even the deepest waters. I'll miss seeing your posts on here, but am so glad that you will continue with your other blog. You are a dear sister in the Lord, Rachel.

Just today I was editing some VBS pictures and Cara Beth said, "I want to see Knox."  So I pulled up a few pictures of him and Cara Beth asked when she could see him and play with him.  We had a little conversation about heaven, and I'm not sure if she really understood, but anyway all of this to say that we still love him and you and your family.  Your openness and honesty as you have walked/are walking this road have touched so many.  God has used you in so many lives...especially mine.  In Christ our hope and joy,

Marian

Hey friend. I love you. And I think I will be seeing you very soon. In the meantime, you have done a great work with sharing your heart. It has affected me more than you can know, and maybe someday soon I will tell you...in person...over mexican food...if Creed can handle it. :)

Rachel,
Reading this post made me shut my eyes tight to keep from crying. It is an appropriate ending point for the blog, but so difficult to move on. I love you and your family, and Isaac and I still pray for you, for Creed, for everyone who knew and loved Knox.

Rachel,

I was thinking about Knox today in church, and just wanted to let you know.  You are an amazing woman, and are raising some pretty amazing kids!

We love you all!
