This Day Two Years Ago.....




This day two years ago......
On to the Next Phase!

 Amber was admitted to the hospital where she remained for the next 52 days before the quadruplets were born on May 31st at 29 weeks 5 days.

I began my hospital visits where I dressed up and looked and acted positive -
even though I was scared on the inside!
I trusted God with my daughter and her babies.
I was still scared, though!


The heart monitors......


Amber's constant companion.....


My home away from home......


My brave courageous daughter.


Amber's hospital room....

That's just exactly what she did!!

I want to thank my sister, Deanie, for reminding me of this day two years ago.....
and I am happy to say that here we are two years later.....







Counting our blessings!!!
The NEW will never wear off!

    It seems like so much longer than 2 years. How things have changed. I remember those days so well and how many prayers went up on Amber's behalf.

    What a wonderful story. And for me, a newcomer to your blog such a blessing to see all that has happened in the past two years.
    Loved those pictures, and the love between a mom, daughter, and sweet Grandpa and the kids.

    Yes, for sure, SO many belssings! What a scary time! Your pictures tell the story, and the ultra sounds are wonderful!!!! I guess they are those new fangled 3-D ones that show the babies like they really are. Amazing...

    Amazing to see all over again! John was here for this one and has enjoyed seeing the quads, too, and has chuckled throughout. Enjoy these beautiful Texas spring days!
