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.
Jeremiah 29.11

Johnboy's 8th Birthday

I still cannot believe my little 1 pound 8 ounce micro-preemie is now a "not so little" 60 pound eight year old.  I would really appreciate it if time would please slow down.
 
Anyhow, his party definitely goes down as the BEST birthday party ever!  Daddy and Papa built a huge screen to hang on the back wall, we set up the projector, popped A LOT of popcorn, made a cake out of candy, invited all Johnboy's friends to come over wearing their PJ's, lined the grass with sleeping bags and put on a movie to watch under the stars. 
 
Best.  Party.  Ever.
