November 25th, 2002. This date will forever be in our minds! This is the day that our sweet Angel went to heaven. 7 yrs. of what if's. 7 yrs. now without him in our arms! We have met alot of people through this "season" of our lifes. When I was PG with Mark Jr. it was a wonderful blessing. We had prayed for 3 years to have another baby. On November 22nd, we took the kids to an Ultrasound to find out the sex of our baby. The girls were so excited! We went in for the Ultsrasound, we saw his face and everything. The nurse said wait here. When she came back, she had us go into a room with out the kids. The Dr. was there. All I remember is him saying " I am sorry, we couldn't find his heartbeat." I was 21.5 weeks along. What do you mean you can't find the heart beat. WHY? WHAT? HOW?. I was totally lost. That night, my parents and sister came to town to be with us. On Saturday we went to the funeral home to pick out a casket for a baby that we hadn't met. On Monday, November 24th, 2002 I was induced to give birth to our Still son. It was a very long day! Induced at 9 AM and I gave birth to him at 6:14 pm.. Our first born son. Born still!
It was one of the sadest days of our lifes. Tomorrow will mark 7 yrs.
Today I pray for all the moms that are Pregnant Please take the time to hold your kids tight. God has blessed us with more than we will ever know.
