Jeff and I have so many things to be thankful for...especially this year. And not to get too mushy, but we also have witnessed many miracles over the past year. Just conceiving these precious babies was a miracle in itself, not to mention all the miracles that took place in their development in the womb. We witnessed the miracle of childbirth, and all the miracles that took place thereafter in the hospital. Tyler, only weighing 2 pounds, breathing on his own and even having the strength to rip the ventilator out (twice) - Haley, never even needing a central line for nourishment, only a couple IVs - Ellison, on oxygen for several weeks, then one day we looked and realized that her oxygen had been mistakenly turned off and she had been keeping her levels up on her own!
Even with all these miracles, we are still in awe of everything they do and all they've accomplished! Just a few weeks ago, they weighed in at 17 pounds for Elli, 16 pounds for Haley and 15 pounds for Tyler. Unreal.
But here's the real miracle we recently witnessed. I cannot explain this one, nor will I try. Many parents have prayed for this miracle, only to be disappointed year after year. I'm quite sure this will be the only miracle of it's kind that we will experience in their lifetime, so we are cherishing it with all our hearts.
Three babies...all smiling...sitting on Santa's lap...do ya think God had a hand in this one? I do!!!
