First time....
It was going to happen sooner or later....But I still was not prepared for it. Ian got a text from a friend out in Portland today. They haven't spoken in months, so he was simply asking Ian how he was, what was new and if our baby was here yet.....the first of many awkward moments, but it stung like hell.

i'm so sorry you have to experience these moments. but sydney's story now reaches all the way to portland as well. and you now have more people who will love you harder and pray earnestly for you. i pray for God's peace everytime this happens and strength to endure. love, m^m
Sydney's story is special and is to be cherished by those who loved and cherished Ian, Alyssa and Liam. The Lord chose to take her from us for his reasons, not to punish or smite or anything else. She was someone we hoped for and looked forward to loving and caring for. No matter how far this story has reached, Sydney is with the Lord and there she will remain, as far as I understand the Word of God. I deeply love you.
Lyssa, I would never begin to say I know how you feel or any other cliche wording, but my heart aches for you as a mother. I am praying for you, Ian and Liam. Several months ago the Lord gave me a scripture verse as I travelled a path that was and is dark to me. I hope it will comfort you.
Isaiah 42:16
"I will lead the blind by ways they have not known, along unfamiliar paths I will guide them; I will turn the darkness into light before them and make the rough places smooth. These are the things I will do; I will not forsake them."
Love you and your family. Jennifer
