Mother's Day

This Mother's Day my men treated me sweetly. I woke up to blueberry pancakes, presents, and cards! My little man gave me chocolates and a singing balloon, which he carries around the house meanwhile dancing to the music. Then, my main man, Noah, gave the most amazing surprise EVER! A KINDLE!!! He had been saving up for about as long as I have wanted one, which is a long time! I love to read, so this gift was perfect for me! So the reason why I haven't written about this incredible day is because I have been playing with my new toy! Noah preached in another town, so he was gone during the day, and during that time Walt and I were able to celebrate my mom by going to church with her and having lunch. Then, Noah topped off the day with making me dinner and picking out a kindle case together!

  1. Love it! What blessings your men are! That Kindle must be the reason you've been struggling to get back in touch with me, huh? ;P

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.

Hello World!!

Here are my first pictures! Julie is on her way to the room and doing great. As we have more pictures, I will get them up for you to see. Stephen

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
