May 18, 2009 … it’s hard to believe that this day is actually here … it carries so much meaning for us, and always will. We’ve been dreaming about this day since September 15 when we first found out we were pregnant … the fact that it is here both terrifies and amazes us. When the two small words “trisomy 18” first became a reality, making it to this date didn’t seem possible. But Miss Toot defied the odds, and the fact that we’ve been given 40 weeks with our precious little girl is a gift we will cherish forever. We’re so anxious to meet her, and hoping and praying with everything we have that she gets to open her eyes, say hello to this world and meet the people that surround her with love each and every day.
Thank you again for thinking of us today; your comments, texts and emails were very much appreciated. Toot is a lucky girl, and so are her parents …
