As most of you may know, December was an emotionally draining month for our family. Mike and I were faced with the devastating loss of our twins to a genetic disorder called Meckel-Gruber Syndrome. Our identical twin daughters joined our loved ones already in heaven on December 17, 2009 at 18 weeks of gestation. I want to thank everyone who prayed for us during this time of grief. It has been our love for each other, the love from our family and friends, and our faith in God that has brought us out of the darkness.
Even in the darkest of moments, we were able to see joy through the eyes of Hannah with her 2nd birthday on the 12th and of course Christmas. We also purchased a new home here in South Louisiana. We closed on the 28th and moved in on New Year's Day.
Happy Birthday Hannah the Big 2:
Christmas 2009
I'm very sorry to hear this, Amanda. I suspected something was going on in your family because of your sister's Facebook posts. You and your family are in my thoughts. You are so strong!
ReplyDeleteThank you Heather. It was by far the hardest thing I have ever faced. I just know that I have two sweet angels looking over us.
