We started trying to have children in May 2002. After pursuing fertility treatments, domestic, and international adoption, our daughter Nadia Renee was born on 6-24-08 (at 36w4d). IVF #2 resulted in Ian Alexander, who was born on 12-12-09 (at 34w3d). Oliver Elliot (IVF #3) was born on 8-7-12 (at 31w6d)! Three other pregnancies (in 2005, 2007, and 2013) ended in miscarriage. Our family is complete! We are so thankful for our three miracles!

How sweet
A florist just delivered an arrangement of a dozen roses (white, pink, and yellow) in a vase. I wasn't sure who they were from, but it turns out they were from a couple from church. Peter plays in the handbell choir. He wasn't there last Monday (I had a little meltdown last Monday so everyone knew I was struggling emotionally), but someone must have told him of our recent loss. I think I am going to save these roses (dry them later). It's a tangible reminder of the 6 little babies we lost. I am truly overwhelmed by the thoughtfullness and kindness of a fellow bell ringer. I am really, really touched. It was totally unexpected.
