Angel Noah

I'm sad to report that Noah Biorkman, the boy I told you about a few weeks ago, passed away this morning. I don't have to tell you how this makes me feel, the fear/anger/sadness that another child dying from Neuroblastoma brings to my heart. Please pray for this family as they cope with the loss of their precious boy.

I did want to tell you that the family received over 1 million Christmas cards! So many that they actually asked people to stop sending them weeks ago! I started thinking how wonderful it was, but then I realized something even greater...that is over 1 million people who now know about Neuroblastoma. I just know that God is using sweet Noah's short life for a purpose...

My thankful thought for today...

I am thankful for time. Time to spend with my family. Time to love those in my life. Time to celebrate special holidays and birthdays. Time to see Brady continue to amaze. And time to see how God will use his story to change lives. I'm thankful for each and every moment.

Say Cheese!

Okay, it's official. Attempting to photograph 6 people, 4 of them small people, is incredibly exhausting! I appreciate my sister in law's time and energy today. We went at it for about 1 1/2 hours and did get some great shots! Of course I'm not going to spoil our Christmas card and share them with you, but I will share some of the extras:) The family picture proved to be difficult today, after all it is next to impossible for Matt and I to wrangle two kids each at once. We will try again on that another time.

Here are some sights from our house today!









Thanks Kristen for reminding me through these pictures how precious my babies are!
