Three years since we knew...

Climbing the staircase to great things!!

Lucy:

You have many milestones that daddy and mama celebrate.  Your birthday.  Your first TEF surgery.  Your second (and this time successful!) TEF surgery.  Your shunt placement.  The day we FINALLY got to take you home from the hospital after 4 MONTHS!  But today....today is the day that makes mama the most emotional...remembering the day we knew that your life would not be typical, and that ours wouldn't be typical anymore either.  Today is the anniversary of when we chose for a second time to give you life knowing even then what a wonderful testament of grace and courage you would be to everybody.

It's true that God doesn't give special kids to special parents, he gives them to us ordinary, common people and it's YOU that makes us special.

We love you, goose!

Love daddy and mama.
