40,000 Hits!

I am going to jump in here because I know that Julie and Noah won't have time to mention this to you guys. Today, this blog hit over 40,000 hits! That is absolutely amazing! Julie and Noah started the blog shortly after Magdalena had been diagnosed as a release. The family had found so many other blogs from people going through the same thing and it was so helpful to us. As word spread about their blog, I realized that the blog was having a bigger impact than Julie and Noah realized. I finally convinced Julie to put a counter on her blog in June - so the 40,000 hits have actually just been since June! Thank you so much to all of you for being such an encouragement to our family. Julie and Noah have no idea how much their faith through this situatution has had such a huge impact on all of us. Thank you, Julie and Noah, for sharing so many of your deepest thoughts and feelings with us and opening your lives so that we may examine our own. We Love You!

Magdalena Grace Roberts

This morning Magdalena left this world to be with Jesus. There really isn't too much else I can say but to please pray for Julie and Noah. For now, they do not want any calls, emails or visits. I will you keep you updated on the arrangements.

Making the Decision to Not Make the Decision

I get the question, "Are you going to have any more kids?" asked often. Since finding out Magdalena's diagnosis it was always a tough question to answer. We had always envisioned ourselves with multiple children, but there was always the lingering thought of having to endure this difficult situation again. Although it is less than a one percent chance that we would have another child with T18, the percentage still exists. When pregnant, I said multiple times that I couldn't do this again and my mom constantly reminded me that it is not always that difficult. Being pregnant was physically uncomfortable, but I was referring to the constant emotional exhaustion. As Magdalena continued to do well, Noah and I weren't sure when to begin thinking about other children. Noah and I discussed that I would work really hard at losing my weight, but I was willing to be five pounds more than what I was originally. People poked fun at my not eating Magdalena's birthday cakes
