To my dearest Noah ~
What a wild ride this last 8 years have been! I prayed over the EPT test I took with you that it would be positive! That I would have a child as wonderful as you are!!! God broke the mold when he made you.
You are our little miracle. You have defied every odd, stumped doctors, and truly been a living example of God's ability to heal when the doctors said it was impossible.
You are a stubborn little guy, very head strong and determined, but I guess you had to be! I love you with my whole heart and soul. I hope and pray that this next year brings you much happiness and joy.
Thank you for making me smile and laugh every day. Thank you for bringing whitt and charm to our family.
I love you precious,
MOM
Noah fresh from the "oven"
Off to the NICU :-( One of my hardest days. I was so scared. We put all the stuffed animals around you, pictures, and the music was from Grannie so you wouldn't be lonely when we had to be out of the nursery.
I was sooooooo happy! They let me feed you breast milk from a bottle. YAY!!!!
HAPPY DAY! Your home from the hospital! Joshua was sooooo happy!
6weeks old. Back to the hospital :( Your heart monitor kept going off. This is when we found out about your heart condition and they were changing your medications.

My dearest sweet Noah Michael,
Yes, it's really been eight amazing, miraculous years!
Noah, You are still here because God answered the prayers of Christians all over the world; family, friends, Missionaries, and Pastors. Whatever God's will was for you, we were ready to accept it, but, we selfishly wanted you to stay with us. I don't remember putting the music and headphones into the NICU bed with you, but I do remember making a sign that said, "Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord." I remember staying hours and hours with you in the NICU when Mommy or Daddy couldn't be with you. You are worth every moment, you are worth every tear that we shed for you, and every prayer that was said for you.
How much fun it has been to watch you grow and grow. Your smile melts my heart! Remembering your life brings happy tears as I remember and write this note to you.
You are such a happy little guy; like most of us, you are most happy when you get your own way; but, for the most part, you are always happy just to be.
You are so adorable, so kind, so smart and helpful...and, you LOVE your Grannie! What more could I ask for.
Noah, I love you today and forever.
Grannie
