THANKFUL for our BOYS


I remember talking to Mike on a night when he was tearful and feeling so powerless; as a husband, as the provider to his family, as a father. I remember him too asking, “why?” and “what if…?” I asked him right back, “what if?” “What if” from the very beginning we knew we carried this gene? Would we have decided against having children? We would have never been given the gift of our first born, Drake? And “what if” we would have found out after Drake’s birth? We were already pregnant with Broc (they are only 16 months apart)…would that have changed a thing? No! (only the stress of all that comes along with being told you have an unhealthy baby). And “what if” this disorder would have been known after Broc, would we have ever had a third child? or “what if” we when we had our CVS testing during our pregnancy with Trey, then what? What would it have changed…NOTHING. These are the three children God has chosen to be ours and how THANKFUL we are !
