In honour of Tricia and Nate

This post is for everyone to read, in honour of an amazing family that i have had the pleasure of reading about via the internet and their blog http://cfhusband.blogspot.com/

They are an inspiration to me and I hope to be able to share SOMETHING with them.

i can't wait for you to:

-be able to hold your daughter without wires and tubes.
-be able to feed her a bottle and hear her burp :)
-be able to dress her all up, and lay her down in a crib like a big girl
-be awakened in the middle of the night because of her cries
-have her snuggle her head into your neck in an attempt to fall asleep
-see that first toothy grin, and to become a human teething ring
-be able to take her shopping, only to buy anything and everything because it's pink and pretty
-take her to feed ducks for the first time
-hear her laughing and cooing
-give her a real "tubby"
-see her reaction to baby food
-see her reaction to SAND
-be able to push her in a stroller, or walk around with her on your hip
-be able to be with her NON stop, every minute of every day


Little Gwyneth is doing sooo well for a baby born at her gestation. After working in the NICU, you see some babies that hit the ground running and others that just have to work really hard to not lose ground. Gwyneth really is a miracle, really really amazing. Reading about Tricia, Nate and Gwyneth almost daily, has helped me in my life. They have helped me put things in perspective and I really appreciate them for that. I don't know them, I will probably never meet them, but they have definitely left a lasting impression on me. I tell people I meet about them, and I know I will NEVER forget them.
