  2. I am so sorry for your loss. I have been following your story since she was born, and I know how much she was loved by all. She is now at home in peace and no more hurt or sickness. She is in Jesus' arms, and I'm sure my grandfather who passed away a month ago will watch over her too.
    She is at home now with all the other babies who have gone too soon.
    Your family will stay in my prayers.

  5. My heart dropped into my stomach when I read about the passing of your sweet Magdalena. I have been following her story since a few weeks before her birth. I checked up on your blog at least once a day. I really do not know what to say, except that I am so very, very sorry. I will continue to keep you in my thoughts and prayers. I hope that you find comfort in God's arms until the day you reunite with your sweet daughter.

    I am so sorry for your loss. I have no idea what you are experiencing. I have followed Magdalena 's life since she was born & have prayed for her hoping she would make it. I have a baby around the same age & my heart just breaks for you two & what you are going through. May God keep his arms around you during this very hard time.
    Kisses & hugs to heaven!!

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

Hello World!!
