Sometimes I need the reminder of how precious LIFE really is. Today is a day that brings me back. It felt like my pregnancy was being stolen away when I got told my baby was coming today. A preemie experience is the shattering of all your dreams for a normal, healthy delivery. Our child was across town and may not survive long enough for us to simply touch her. My first glimpse of her skinny, scrawny, not much bigger than a Barbie doll child was on the tv screen for less than two minutes for us to see her. Our hearts broke. I prayed knowing whatever was going to happen, was going to gloify God. Then it was sitting by our babys bedside day after day, week after week, month after month. It was hearing the alarms go off for the twentieth time in less than fifteen minutes because she heart rate kept hitting zero. It was watching children dying around us, wondering if our child will be next. And wondering, Why me? Then feeling guilty because my child was still alive, after just seeing one die two beds down. It was the ohhs and the awws when wed say, Oh, look, shes openening her eyes. We knew the struggles and hurdles would follow us home. It was watching the milestones come much later than Normal. What a rollercoaster ride Keziah braught us on. I thank God for our precious miracle child. It is a journey that has changed my heart, soul and mind. She is one of the reasons I get up each day!! I LOVE you KEZIAH baby, to the moon and back!!! HAPPY 6TH BIRTHDAY
