I saw this yesterday on Oprah, and it really touched me. As soon as Jona came home from work we sat down and watched it together. Needless to saw we both cried, I of course did the "ugly cry". It really hit home for us. Now seeing Hart it is hard to believe he spent 10 days in NICU. We both had days of pure exhaustion, sleepless nights...and I would have pity parties for myself. "What did I do for him to come so early?" I seemed to ask Jona every few hrs his last days in NICU. Jona with his strong never questioning Faith would tell me "You did nothing, the good Lord was just ready for him to be here." We along with all our family and friends would get so excited over the smallest accomplishments Hart had. Moving from 25cc to 30 cc, taking a full 30 to 35 cc in 30 mins, and I will never forget the morning of Oct. 4th when we walked into NICU for his 8am feeding and he was awake crying for food!!!! Music to our ears! We still love to hear him cry out for food. We are happy to let everyone know Hart has been eating for the past two days 4 ozs every 3-4 hrs!! Oh before I forget, Eliott's parents were happy to announce that in 2 weeks Eliott will be having a little brother or sister. I don't know them but could not be more excited for them!

You were right - that really did get me crying. We don't know what God has in store for us and our children, but hopefully we can all learn from the good and the bad we go through in this life.
