Friday's Luau

On friday evening the seminary had their annual luau, and this year Noah and I were so happy to participate! Noah did his favorite thing by cooking hamburgers the entire time! Life is different now for us because this luau is the perfect example of how we participate in normal life again. Noah enters into it wonderfully, while I struggle to know what to do. It must sound crazy, but it is hard to explain too. Walt is having a blast living near kids that he can "play" with and attempt to pull their hair. He continues to flirt with his smile, but he is just a little sleepy in this family photo.

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...
