Walt's New Friends

Walt's first time holding his new friends!

Walt helped Mimi to take care of Cousin Emma's Christmas present by giving them lots of love! Although you can't tell by the pictures, Walt continued to squeal with excitement! He knows who they are, and always looks forward to going and visiting them! This is the funnest age so far, but it is definitely coming with challenges. Just as much as Walt knows how to obey, he also disobeys. It is constantly a challenge to know how to respond in a way that is God centered. God has some major work for me in this area! Pray super hard for me, friends!

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...
