We have been gone from this space for over a year. The truth is that our grief consumes us less these days, thank God. Our hearts are filled with much joy as our second daughter nears her second birthday. She is full of life and giggles.
This summer after a difficult pregnancy, we welcomed a healthy baby boy. And now our little family is complete - as complete as it can be with one of us missing. We are so thankful for all our children, for the life, love and joy they have brought.

Our cries for the daughter who came into the world silently but spoke volumes into our lives
The Story of Cara Grace
Cara Grace
March 18 (38.5 weeks)
5 lbs, 15 ounces, 19 inches
Cara Grace was a completely healthy little girl born silently into this world 10 days before her due date. We experienced the ideal pregnancy without a single known risk factor. It was only after her death that a treatable blood condition was diagnosed.
We grieve not having her here with us every day. She was our firstborn, our only child, the joy of our life.
We take comfort in knowing Cara is with God, but we do not believe that her death was part of some big plan. Death, sickness, brokenness, they are all contrary to the original design of life. We take hope that a day is coming when all will be redeemed and life in its fullness will be restored.
Until then we wait with joyful anticipation for the day when we will once again see our baby girl...
