One Year!

Wow. Joshua is a year old today. I can hardly believe it. Sometimes it seems so long ago, and then of course there are days when it feels like just yesterday. So much has happened in that year. 123 NICU days. Homecoming, stressing over weight gain and now a happy one year old. I look at his birth pictures all the time. I think term mom's sometimes take for granted the milestones that their babies so easily hit. We have our own milestones and Josh is really doing well considering his early start.

Thank you to all for being there for us this last year. Being our strength when we had none, sending so many prayers when they were so desparately needed. Just knowing that you were all there helped us more than you can ever know. And thank you all for being a part of Joshua's life. He is a lucky boy for having all of you.
