Prematurity

Today is Prematurity Awareness Day.

The March of Dimes is "banding together" to fight for preemies. This is Eva's band.

543,000 babies are born too early every year.


Over 45,000 U.S. babies will be born preterm just this November.

Staggering numbers, aren't they?

We surely never expected to be part of those numbers. Sometimes it all seems very surreal as we continue this journey with our sweet Eva Grace. But we know we are blessed.


Today, please say a prayer for all those little ones in the NICU. And pray for their families too.

You have made a difference in the life of our preemie. And for that we are thankful.

We truly are blessed with Eva Grace in our lives. From day one it is amazing to see her grow. She has a very special Mommy and Daddy who take very good care of her and it shows!
