Our Miracle

Please enjoy these pictures taken by Andrea in association with Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep.
Just looking at these pictures makes me cry because it is a reminder of all the emotions that Noah and I felt at the time. Nervous and scared of so many unknowns, and then, the joy of meeting our first child. God was there in that room with us. Each person there was hand chosen by Him to assist in the care, and some of them still read this blog because they love Magdalena too. Thank you. Thank you for loving her. Thank you for answering the call to become in the health care profession. All of you will always be in our hearts and remembered forever because you allowed God to use you so that we could meet our child, our baby. We love you.

    Julie, I am so thankful to our wonderful Savior for graciously giving you and Noah the honor of being Magdalena's parents. She is absolutely precious. You and Noah have honored Him to the utmost! Wes and I are still praying for all three of you daily!

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
