We are a Christian couple learning how to do this thing called life as we strive for our eternal goal of Heaven. Join us as we learn to lean on God, on each other, and on our family and friends. We have battled infertility, miscarriage, having a micropreemie, and now we are raising our sweet little girl who has mild Cerebral Palsy. We have been thrown alot of curves in this thing called life, but we have overcome each obstacle and are stronger than ever

Emotional Day!

Today has been such a hard day and I know it will continue. I am 11 weeks 6 days today. On January 2, 2009 I was 11 weeks 6 days. At 9am that morning Daniel and I were having our lives changed forever. We were being told that our baby Zachary had stopped growing. At 12pm I was in the hospital awaiting the surgery that would remove Zachary from my body. That was the hardest day of ours lives. I have thought alot about Zachary today. I have shed many tears. It still hurts so much. Being pregnant again doesn't make the pain go away, it just brings happiness into the mix of pain. We will never know what kind of little boy Zachary would have been but we know he was loved, is loved sooooo much. So today has been a very rough day. Please keep us in your prayers. And please keep this little baby I am carrying in your prayers. We are still so scared about the next appt.

  1. Shawna, I have a question and I am in no means trying to upset you by asking this, but how did you know it was a boy? I've just been really curious. Again, I do not mean anything by this and I'm so sorry for what you have been through.
