Waiting Here for You

Since Magdalena's death I have thought about heaven more than ever.  It is constantly on my mind because I know that only in heaven will be us as God had planned for us to truly be.  Our pain in this world reminds us that God can only satisfy what we truly want and need.  This song always gets me choked up and gives me a freedom to praise God in a big way.  I try to use big words but sometimes all I need to say is "Hallelujah!" to truly express how I feel.  Because of the Cross we can praise God intimately.

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...
