re: Remembering Bethany And Her Family.

posted 1st Jan '08
I wanted to stop by and give my condolences. I have never had the pleasure of conversing with Bethany nor did I know of her; however, from all the posts I've read about her, she seemed like she was the back bone of babygaga who offered advice and support to the women of this site. I even went as far as to search her in myspace. What I gathered from her profile, pictures, and comments was that she was a beautiful person and a great mother. It's tragedies like this one that reminds us that life is very short. We have to live it to the fullest for the loved ones we've lost. I will keep her and her four children, who were taken away all too soon, and her surviving family in my prayers.

Whenever I asked a question about mommyhood or saw someone else ask one, Bethany was always quick to respond.
The thing was, she was always so straightforward. She never started out with "I think you should..." She'd say "do this" or "do that". At one point, when I was still fairly new to these boards, I wanted to ask her why she was so sure of everything; now mind you I didn't - more or less for fear of starting an argument.
I am so happy I didn't because soon after feeling that way I started talking to her. Once I heard how many kids she had and how methodically and amazingly she ran her family I realized hey this lady really knows what she's talking about. I think I got some of my best advice as well as some of my best laughs from the beautiful Bethany.
If you were acting like an idiot...well hey, she'd let ya know! If you can't spell pregnant; she'd be the first to tell you not to have a kid! (haha)
What at first intimidated me about Bethany, became what made me like her so much. <3<3<3

Bethany was the kind of mother we all wanted to be like. She was made to be a mother. I loved her for being the breastfeeding, cloth diaper making super mom that she was. The last conversation I had with her on Gaga was about her wanting another baby...

It hurts my heart so much that she's gone.

So lay me down
In that open field out on the edge of town
And know my soul
Is where my momma always praye
That it would go
And if you’re reading this I’m already home

I never really talked to Bethany, but I just wanted to say that this is just such a tragedy.   She was such a nice woman, from what I read in her posts. RIP Bethany and her beautiful children.

Here are a couple ofpoems I found. RIP Griffen family.

Wings Of The Angels
by Tim Chambers
A gentle wind blew cross the land
Reaching out to take a hand
For on the winds the angels came
Calling out a mother's name.

Left behind, the children's tears
Loving memories of the years
Of joy and love, a life well spent
And now to God a mother's sent.

On angel's wings, a heavenly flight
The journey home, towards the light
To those who weep, a life is gone
But in God's love, 'tis but the dawn.

Silent Child
by Kelly Lancor

My silent child
our precious baby,
Close to my heart
I'll keep you with me.
An important job
God has for you,
There is love to give,
and work to do.

He needs an angel
strong but small,
To shine light on many
and give love to all.
Before you go
I give you this,
half my heart
and one last kiss.

We'll miss you dearly
that we know,
But by God you were
chosen,
So to heaven, you must go
