The WORD



When babies are born they cry to be nursed (and nurtured)

Nate was no different in that respect.
Nate cried because he was
HUNGRY
.


and I tried and tried to make that painful cry stop.
you know that cry.
I know you do.

the cry when a newborn is hungry
the cry when you toddler wakes up and is hungry
that deep in my belly because I am starving mommay....
the hungry cry

Nate has fought this and other battles his whole life.

And sometimes I can only just 'ride the wave' of pain I feel in my heart

This month is a new milestone.

and I am torn, do I celebrate or do I cry?

This month my child that has been

HUNGRY FROM BIRTH

STARVING

yes

UNSATISFIED HUNGER

is  NOW ABLE TO  TELL ME!!

'MOMMAY,

I HUNGREE,

I WEEAWLY

WEEAWLY

HUNGREE."

*tears, as my already broken heart
cracks
again
from
the
pain
of
the
word....

HUNGRY
