Purpose
As you already know, this blog is in memory of my sweet baby and the 6 wonderful days we had with him. At first, I had debated about sharing such personal information with complete and total strangers, but if there is even one person out there that feels encouraged, then the mission of this blog has been accomplished. Secondly, it's also a way for our friends and family to have constant access to updates on how we are doing. I know that doing this will also be therapeutic to me in itself. Sometimes it all just feels like a dream. Lastly, for those who are willing, I'd like to ask for your prayers. We know that someday we will be Mommy and Daddy again...we are just not sure how or when. Please pray that in God's time and in God's way, it will happen again for us. We would appreciate that so much!

Caught your blog from a post you left on CF Husband's blog.
I know somewhat how you feel. After years of infertility we were expecting our 1st... and on November 1, 2007 at 23w6d Will was born. He was so tiny and so amazing all at the same time. He gave us 29 grace filled days before he became an angel on November 30, 2007.
I will pray for you and hope that the plan that God has for us reveals soon. If you ever need to talk with someone who may understand, please feel free to reach out.

Like Will's mum, I caught your blog from a post you left on CF Husband's blog.
I cannot and will not even begin to say I know where you are coming from, but I will pray for you & your family.
I agree that blogs can be therapeutic - at least it is for me - it's helped me when I'm home sick (I was born & raised in New York but moved to London, England when I was 27 years old).
All the best!
I found that the journeys the Lord puts me on is for His Glory and my good but also for others. I have been able to minister because of the things I have gone through. Some days I have longed to not have gone through those things but when the moment happens and I truly was able to help someone, give an understanding responds or just a hug and they know I know how they hurt, the journey was worth it.
Blog on, for your benefit and those who are reading. You might not ever know the good you did on this side of heaven.
Praying the Lord continues to heal your broken heart and that He allows you to help many. You might just be a cup of cold water to someone in need through this blog.

I too found you through CF Husband. It will be 6 years tomorrow that our little Dylan was born. He was also a 25weeker and lived for 5 days.
I remember feeling exactly like you, wondering when I would get a chance to be a Mommy again.
The Lord has blessed us with 2 amazing little girls that were also born early. Olivia and Ava are here today because of the amazing sacrifice of Dylan.
I will be praying for you as you get through these trying days.
I've never lost a child, but I am a mom to 3 babes, and I still cannot say that I understand that kind of pain you have suffered. All that I can say is I'm so sorry for the loss of your precious son.
I also can say it does take courage to share something so special, so precious, and so painful with the webworld, but I think this is a wonderful blog you have started that will be full of hope and encouragement for other parents who have lost their precious children.
God Bless you, and may He bless you with another baby so you can be parents again.
In the meantime...I will pray for you;)
Please know that our thoughts and prayers are with you all.... God has a plan for our journey...we just don't get the map... HUGS!!!
Love and prayers-

I am so sorry for your loss, I can't imagine what it feels like to lose your child, you and your sweet baby will be in my thoughts and prayers. My son was born at 26 weeks, and he's still in the NICU fighting. I know how it feels to cherish every moment with your baby, and I pray for you that you will be blessed with another baby. I know that the thought of another baby doesn't change the pain you feel now, you are so wonderful to share you story with everyone. May God bless you and your husband, and be with you always.
