Father's Day

This weekend was really hard for Jason and I. We conceived Addison a year ago yesterday and today is Father's Day! I am really proud to call Jason my husband and I fell in love with all over again when I saw how he looked at our little girl. He is the best daddy any little girl could have wished for. I just hope that God will bless us with another one of his miracles and allow us to keep him or her for a while. I want to see that look in my husbands eyes again. I guess it is the unconditional love of a father that I saw when he looked at Addison.

Today, we spent the day together doing whatever he wanted. First we went to the gym for a good long workout and lunch and then headed to Harry's for dinner ingredients. We then decided to go to the movies to see the "The Hangover". It was really good to laugh that much. Tonight we are cooking dinner at home: Steak, crab cakes, shrimp and corn! We are also opening a bottle of wine from the cellar: Oracle. A very special wine for a very special occasion!

I want to wish all father's a Happy Father's Day! I know how much my father means to me and how grateful I am to be his daughter.

All is Well

The world finds me well lately. I have been having more good days than bad. I really miss my little angel but know that I am becoming the person that she would be proud of and that God wants me to be. I have been really busy lately with work and with my favorite Job - The Parker Reese Foundation. I am so glad that God brought Jessica and this amazing foundation into my life.

I equate CDH Awareness to ants. One ant cannot move the large piece of food to the ant hill, but if all the ants all work together there is not anything that they cannot move. We need to bind together as a team and fight this for our Heavenly and Earthly CDH angels. The only people that can make a difference are the ones of that we are chosen by God to have the precious angels in our lives whether it is for a lifetime or just a fleeting moment. Everyone of us has a story to tell. Use it not for sympathy but to anger the rest of the world and light the fire that will fuel people to become active for this cause.

I want to remind you to keep all the CDH babies and families in your prayers. There are many that are in the thick of the fight, about to begin their fight, or are fighting the daily battles of CDH survival that could use the added support.
