This is the amazing journey of our two miracles. John Craig was born on November 30, 2005 at 24 weeks and 5 days gestation. He weighed 1 pound 8 ounces and was 12 inches long. John is a true miracle and an inspiration to all that meet him! Hope Amanda, our perfect little girl, is currently recovering from two brain surgeries to remove a 6cm mass from the center of her brain. Hope represents everything good in this world and she too is an inspiration to all.
For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future.

Houston we have a problem
For those of you who don't know, John has a constipation issue. He is on a medication called Enulose which is basically fiber. As our pediatrician puts it, the amount of enulose he's on should make the entire family go to the bathroom. I never thought I'd be so excited about poop! It's a big deal when John finally goes because it doesn't happen very often (it's getting better though.) Anyhow, John and I were playing today and I had him on my lap facing me. Just as the phone rang I heard an explosion! I figured I'd take the call and then go change his diaper. Well, the phone call was from a principal that I am interviewing with. As we started talking I looked down and saw poop coming out of his diaper onto me!!!!! Lacee, it reminded me of you and Carter at the hospital. Thank goodness I was at home. I couldn't possibly tell this principal, that I am trying to impress, that I had to go because my son had pooped all over me so I finished the conversation and then cleaned us both up. Hey, at least he pooped right?
