My husband and I had a adorable and perfect baby boy on August 20, 2013. It took a lot of praying and time for me to decide to have another child. I would pray for the Lord to take the situation out of my hands and make me not make that decision. He did, our God is always listening. We got pregnant July 2015 I found out the day before the sudden loss of my father. This was a really hard time and I thought this was God's work of giving me this bundle of joy during a hard time. My husband and I weren't trying so this baby was seriously a miracle from God. At 16 weeks we take our 2 year old son River to the doc apt with us we are going to find out if it is a baby boy or baby girl. We go into the ultrasound room and find out that we have lost our baby boy Ryker I immediately felt like July 30 was back when my father was found passed away in his bed. Now my baby boy was gone. This was a Thursday and I had to wait until Monday to be induced for labor to give birth to Ryker. I can't tell you how important it is to take that time. I Thought I wanted to go ahead and give birth to him that day and get it over with so I could move on. If you are faced with this situation don't wait and take the time to let your friends and family love on you spend that time in prayer and let the Lord lift you up through it.
​I got to actually see my baby boy, hold him, spend time with him, and say my goodbyes. We have pictures and I am actually honored and blessed to say that my baby boy got a one way ticket to heaven. He didn't have to come to this earth and experience all the trials and hurt we have to go through. My father is in heaven holding and raising my second child Ryker.
​Today a short 3 months later. I gave birth to Ryker on October 19, 2015 today is January 23, 2015 we found out I am pregnant with my third child. We are very excited and I know that everything is in Gods hands and this was his will for our family.
