Her First Christmas

This is the closest Vera will get to snowmen. I wonder if she'll ever get to experience snow. Come to think of it, neither have I. Maybe next winter, just maybe.

Christmastime always makes me realise how quickly the year has flown by. It has been a life-changing year for Ian and I. It started as one hell of a roller coaster ride and has turned out so, so different from what we were told to expect. Vera shouldn't be seeing her first Christmas, but she is.

Here's to many more Christmases with you, little girl.

I am praying that Vera will experience so many more Christmas'. Too many to count! I love this picture, the colors and just how it came into focus.
Maybe you could just load her and your husband and come to visit Texas. Of course, it has never snowed this earlier here, and rarely do we every see any snow. I wish so that you could make the Trisomy conference. There is such a wealth of information there and also the specialist that you get to meet with (free) and they have truly seen many t18 babies.
