4


Can it be? Four years have passed? It seems like it was yesterday, when we were impatiently waiting for her arrival. I remember vividly the nurses wheeling me down the hall to the OR, when it hit me that we would not be bringing this baby home with us. I began to cry, I began to pray.
 I didn't know who she was then. At that time, she wasn't our little Goosie. I had never seen her beautiful face, or held onto her teeny fingers. I had no idea of the years ahead of us, and of what joy she would bring.  All I knew in that moment is that I was scared to death of loosing our baby before I had the chance to meet her.

God answered that prayer.

 





She decided that she misses being three. "Can we start over with our numbers?"

I love those old pics of her and the new ones. She is so beautiful. The way she came into the world really defines who she is... she has you hanging on the edge waiting for the "whats next" thought and then a prayer "thank you God." Just like when she was so sick and in the hospital. She will put us thru the test to make us stronger. love aunt kathy
