Happy Birthday...

Drew and Grayson are FOUR!!I can't believe these boys are four years old already. It seems like only yesterday they were surprising us with their early arrival. I am still amazed at how perfect their little bodies were when they were born at 28 weeks. (Here's Drew holding my finger the day he was born...)I am still in awe of our gracious Lord...how he chose them, formed them, and then equipped the doctors and nurses to take care of their premature bodies until they were well enough to come home. I am still so thankful for HIS grace that strengthened John and I throughout the journey of the NICU experience. (Here's Mommy holding Grayson in "kangaroo care." He was 2 weeks old....)
The boys were in the NICU for almost 12 weeks...Drew coming home a week after Grayson, which was one day before my due date. (Here's our first family picture...taken on my due date, April 5, 2005)
Thank you, friends and family, for always remembering us in your prayers. We are so grateful for you. Thank you, God, for Your grace that is always sufficient.
Happy Birthday, Drew and Grayson! I love you! I am so glad that I get to be your mommy.
