And just like that….it’s June 16th and our precious miracle-girl, Ruby, is a teenager! I am in awe of all the Lord has done to bring us to this very monumental day. It is a miracle that she is a teenager! Who would have ever guessed? Left to die in a garden in the hot…

Just about 10 years ago I wrote a blog post (here) about Emma’s near-SIDS incident when she was just 5-1/2 weeks old. It was only by God’s infinite mercy and grace that was she in my arms sleeping when it happened. The doctors in the PICU of St. Mary’s in Richmond, Virginia explained that if…

For those not on FB, at the bottom of this post I will add the posts I put on FB along with a video. Thank you all for praying for our girl. We are so grateful for Ruby’s prayer team from around the world. It has a very difficult few days and I didn’t have…

So I noticed something the other day…. When Ruby had the horrible seizure in early February & then Dw had “the medical event” which turned out to be an eye stroke at the end of February – most of you on Facebook used the “hug” emoji to show your concern and kindness. Well as some…

UPDATE: March 3, 2023 Noon Dear Friends, It appears Dw had a Cryptogenic Stroke which (in my completely non-medical expertise) I believe, is a fancy word for a TIA. (He has had 2 TIAs in the past but not for many, many years.) While pulling out of the hospital the neurologist called him to say…

And just like that, two precious little princesses, who once were discarded and left to die, were all glam-glammed and gussied up to be celebrated by their hero-daddy. Presenting the dresses they said “yes” to! (Big sissy went along to lend a hand.) Both Birdie and Ruby were soooo excited to go as evidenced by…

This was just too fun not to share since we have all laughed and laughed at this sweet chica of ours…aka The Wee-Drama Queen! Our homeschool co-op is hosting a Daddy-Daughter Dance this weekend and Dw is taking Ruby and Birdie. So yesterday afternoon Elizabeth and I took the girls dress shopping at a local…

For those not on FB, Ruby had a massive seizure on Tuesday. She was screaming loudly as the seizure was beginning. She has only screamed twice in her entire life since coming home. Both times were as a seizure was starting. Her screams are so incredibly loud and boy are they ever terrifying! In the…
