6 Months!!!

Today is Gwyneth Rose's SIX MONTH BIRTHDAY!!! It truly is too much to even try to wrap my mind around all that has taken place since that miraculous day on January 8.

It would be impossible to even begin to say how thankful we are to God, our family and friends, the Duke staff, our blog readers and the donor and his/her family for the many gifts we have been given during the first half of this year. We are sincerely amazed today, just as we were from the start, that God would bless anyone the way He has blessed us.

Thank YOU for your encouragement and prayers and comments and emails and donations and cards and gifts over the past 26 weeks...you'll never know how much we appreciate everything.

Make sure you check back in later today for some new pics!

    What a great video to RE-start my day with... my day had already started with spilling my coffee, dropping my eggs on the floor, forgetting my lunch at home, and misplacing my keys... but that smile made it ALL better!!!!!

  10. I have been reading your blog for months now- and you guys are truly an inspiration. I have been linked to several blogs- and there is a common theme to all of them- you are all Liberty Grads- First I started with Baby Issac, and then with your blog, and now Ramey Reeves- I say a prayer for each of you every day. I am so glad your little girl is getting bigger each day and staying healthy as well as your wife- you are truly a beautiful God loving family. Sending the prayers.

  17. She is a testimony to the wisdom and faithfulness of God; she encourages me to trust - at 6 months old, she has had more of an impact on the world than most will in their lifetime! What a gift to be thankful for.

  36. Do you think you'd have believed it a year ago if someone had told you that a year from then you'd be parents to a 6 month old, and proud owners of a new set of lungs??? :-D

  39. If you think that her 6th month birthday is amazing (and it is!) just wait until she is 1 yr old and you are celebrating THAT birthday! What amazing grace and love of our Father to continue to heap blessings on your heads. May the next 6 months be as thrilling as the first 6!
    Prayers always for you!

  43. Happy 6-month birthday, Gwyneth! I hope you are smiling all day at your parents. (I remember when my own preemies began to smile - I was overjoyed and overwhelmed. And of course I did tricks all day to make them smile again.)
