Celebration!


We had Caleb's 1st birthday party today at our church. It was amazing. There were so many people there to celebrate Caleb's miraculous life. Caleb was so cute in his little bow tie outfit. He knew he was the king of the party! We had a Noah's Ark bounce house for the older kids. We wanted Corey and Devin to not feel left out. They so often have to do without because our time is occupied caring for Caleb. They have been so loving and understanding. This party was for them to celebrate as well. Thank you God for Caleb and our wonderful family. We are blessed beyond words.

Happy 1st Birthday!!!


What an amazing day..this time last year we were at the hospital waiting to see our precious baby boy..so uncertain of what was going to happen. We had family, friends and Pastor Mike waiting anxiously there with us. I remember being in the OR & all of a sudden hearing the most beautiful sound, Caleb's cry. Steven j...ust cried, looked at me & said "he's alive". He was so beautiful, so perfect. We were so anxious bc we kept wondering with each and every breath he took if it was going to be his last. But he fought with every bit of life he had. God has blessed us beyond words & today we are celebrating his miraculous first year of life. With God ANYTHING is possible. He has guided us & held us so tightly through this journey. He has brought so many wonderful people in our lives. I am so grateful to the other t18 families who we've gotten to know & love. Thank you to all our family & friends who have been right here with us..we love you all so very much. Happy Birthday my sweet Little Mouse
