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

6 months


 6 months feels like a lifetime ago but also feels like yesterday.  It really is crazy how quickly your life can change in a blink of an eye.

I had a conversation with Hope the other day.  Anyone that knows her knows that she is my worrier.  Well, she told me...

"Mom, I was never worried when I was in the hospital.  I felt so calm because I felt Jesus right there with me."

So thankful that we serve such a mighty God because I too felt Him with us and it was all the reassurance I needed.  I even text one of my friends the morning of her surgery to tell her that I could literally feel Jesus right there next to us.  It was the best feeling in the world.

Please keep the prayers coming.  MRI is Wednesday and we want more good news!

Jill, I am blown away by what I just read. You must have been terrified. It made my heart happy that Hope knew that Jesus was with her. Be proud that you have raised children that have a strong faith just like you do. I’ll keep your beautiful girl in my prayers and hope that you receive great news on Wednesday. Love you! 💕💕💕
