Old Friends

Today a college friend came to meet Magdalena. I met Dawn my sophomore year in college, and we, along with two other friends, hung out and watched the Golden Girls, and often times we compared our personalities to the ladies on the show. Our girls nights out where always a blast! No matter how much time passes without seeing each other it feels like we pick up where we left off. She is an incredible friend to me.

Dawn and her husband brought their 5 week old son, Joseph, so that we could meet him too!

    The "pick up where you left off" friends are the best! So glad that you have people around you who love you and magdalena through all the joys and uncertainties.

    I am SO GLAD that Dawn and her family came to visit you! What wonderful memories to treasure! Maybe one day you "golden girls" can all get together again! I have such special memories of you girls living in the dorm and then the slumber party we had at my house! What fun! Love you!

    Santa enjoyed the opportunity to provide a little joy in Magdalena life with the red suit on Saturday. A truly moving day for me. May God bless all of 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...
