Jenae and Connor got their miracle on December 15th! Only 3 weeks early, but she was only 5 lbs, so tiny! And had to be born via c-section. But we had prayed and fasted for 3 years for this! And my kids particularly had been fasting for probably a year before Jenae got pregnant, and then the entire pregnancy Emma prayed for Jenae's baby literally every night. And she started fasting on fast Sundays even though she was only 6 years old. Because she wanted so bad for Jenae and Connor to get to have a baby! Sweetest faith!
My mom was coming to help, but wouldn't be there for a couple more days, so I told Jenae I could come up for the day when they went home from the hospital. I brought them dinner and tried to help her with nursing issues and reassured them that things would get easier and held little Susan (yes! they named her after my mom!) for an hour or so so they could take a nap. It was great fun and I felt helpful and Susan was so sweet and TINY! Super worth the 2 hour drive each way and getting my kids rides for the day.
THis prespective shows how small she really was- like a doll!
God is good.
