You and Carrie are treasures and I'm ever grateful our paths crossed. Been doing my own bit of lemonade drinking; it's been a pleasure to share batches with your family.

I just wish He didn't trust me so much." ~ Mother Teresa You guys are doing an amazing job. Justin couldn't be in any better hands!

But no where in my imagination did I ever think one of my children would have to overcome the challenges that you & Carrie have in the past 13 weeks. With the past almost 10 week now, being the most trying. Many times people take healthy pregnancies & full term newborns for granted, and that's OK, because they most likely wouldn't be able to pass the test you & Carrie have. We are only given the challenges in life that we can survive. You both made all the right decisions, when it was your decision to make and went along with the ones that others made in your best interest. This is why Justin is where he is today. In the best medical facility, with an outstanding staff that want to be there every day. Not because it is a job, but because they really, really want to be there. So enjoy your lemonade, to the fullest, along with all the innocence & wonderment in Justin's eyes. It will be the best reward ever, and it's all yours & Carrie's Do you remember the road trip that never happened? I didn't think so.
