Sorry, I just can't get all sexy after a hospital visit, I will post about it tomorrow. Today wasn't too rough but I am still recovering from a very sad mom who doesn't want her baby due to a bastard ex boyfriend who is a druggie (tik!) so feels desperately alone. I am pretty sure her heart will melt in a few hours when she holds that little bundle but I feel so for her. Everyone else in good spirits and some very happy mamas stoked with
the bag and delighted with their babes.
Here's a few pics to tug on your heart strings. One of the little twin girls has been diagnosed as having brain damage with a verdict of the possibility of not walking but her mother and I are believing otherwise.
Go God!
Clearly not in labour just yet!. She was such a cute mom and very stoked with her gift.
PS, for those who asked about donating clothes, don't forget to post those to Dawnielle as the guy bringing the goods over is leaving on the 6th.


Oh, the smile on the last mom is priceless! Too gorgeous and full of joy. I can see what inspires you to make BB work :)

question here Mel:
You posted that you and the Mom with the twins are not going to believe there's anything wrong with the one. That God will fix her up. Don't you think you are setting that Mom up to be terribly disappointed in God, you, herself, the child, the care she received during labour and be angry, angery, angery about it later if the twin struggles? What about early intervention and excersizes and so on that could help those little legs and so on......?
It's not that I don't believe in miracles, I do. Just I don't 'expect' them, and I don't know if you should encourage them as the only solution for somebody. I think that God is being set up as well. I also think that God is not a puppet master doling out hardships, humans tend to also get in the way of a good plan. As a Mom of twins with a friend who ahs a son with CP, it was due to human error at his birth- he didn't get enough oxygen. It's just a few of my hopefully incorrect thoughts...

Kerry, I know what you are saying and we are careful not to make any promises because we obviously don't know what His plan is. BUT, the power of the spoken word is amazing and you just cannot believe the healing and miracles we have seen at the hospital. Will she be brain damaged all her life? Quite possibly. Can God totally restore her and heal her? VERY possibly.
We pray more from a point of view that the diagnosis for her life is not a given and God can do anything.
Also we all hear of mothers who have defied the odds their kids were dealt with by love and determination and believing in the impossible. I cannot have her give up hope at this point with her teeny little prem girlies, she needs the hope, the encouragement and a possible light at the end of the long tunnel she has to walk.

The smile on that mom is amazing! So bright and beautiful! And those little girls...oh they make my heart ache. I will be praying for them.
