Tiny Miracle

I was recently sent a video that a friend knew I'd appreciate; I only wish I had every email address of every single doctor and nurse that ever really cared for Levi during the first four and a half months of his life. I hope somehow that you will see this and know how often we have and still thank God for you!

It's so important to remember what we've through. Too often we forget the joy of living each day. We think too much about getting to the next vacation, better holiday, or easier phase. Each day we breathe, we are witnessing a miracle. And it's crazy how many of us have gone through similar struggles, and we don't realize it. We don't walk around publicizing our hurdles or hardships. But if we held a banner with everything that has touched us deeply, I think we'd see how very much we have in common with the each other. When you see someone's heart, they feel a little more like family you want to love.

May I never forget everyone that has helped us through these heavy and heart rejoicing times!

Thank you!

So much can change so quickly... Watching medicines, cords, and monitors lessen monthly has equated to witnessing miracle after miracle.










Since we haven't been able to go visit our church family due to Levi's doctor's orders, please know how much we miss and love you too! Your prayers are invaluable!
Here's how we are doing church on Sundays, watching live feed from our home...


And if we are fortunate, the boys will have their own entertainment so we can really focus...

We still sit in awe of the fact that we have two boys who sit and breathe on their own. What a miracle!

A little color

School has officially started for me, and my teachable teenagers will be booming into my room in two days! I can't wait to shape those minds of our future! :)   However, my summer projects are a great reminder of the joyful color and peace I had for two months. :) I found this great idea on Pinterest and thought it would add a great accent color to any room in my home! I still have to put it all together, but here's what the finished product will look like with a little more subtle turquoise: I have it all painted and ready to be assembled!  More pics upon completion! (may be quite a while though now that school is in session... hope you weren't holding your breath.) ~CC

Hard waves

Heartache and hard times seem to come like heat: in waves. Right now, I feel I have escaped the wave. I feel a sense of respite and relief. My world doesn't seem to be hanging in the balance of the next uncertainty. However, I feel the wave around me in the lives of others. It feels as if I'm sitting in the middle of my sweet autumn breeze while I'm hearing story after story of diagnosis, loss, and turmoil. Once upon a time, I would anxiously pray and wonder when my time of turmoil would next hit, but I've had my share of storms since then. Now I can praise God in good times, knowing the hard will come again. Instead of living in fear, I feel assurance that I will again experience respite and joy, and one day all my sorrows will cease when I leave this body. There's no sense in trying to avoid waves; if you have someone bigger, who created the oceans, then you can live at a level of ease no matter your circumstances. When I hear of these hurts, my heart hurts too, b...

Adoption

Levi's First package. A kit for us to use in case his G-tube comes out.... hmmm I think he'd rather have some new socks, and I'm pretty sure we'll just take him to the doctor for that procedure. Sweet boy sleeping soundly at CHOA. Got it put up in his new changing station/closet. The sign was hung, the house was cleaned, and I started packing his clothes at Scottish Rite to bring him home! Then his nurse walked in and said, "So..... he didn't have a very good night. The doctor wanted to talk to you because I don't think he's going to let him go home today." I doubt the sweet nurse new that she had just taken my insides and jarred them to pieces. We've been praying for God to bring Levi home in His perfect timing, so I had to assume that it just wasn't perfect yet. Although, the longer we wait to bring our baby home, the harder it feels like it will be when he gets here. Matthew and I haven't seriously talked about adopti...
