Big Words


Life can be funny sometimes ... especially in the way it teaches us really big words.  Words like Polymicrogyria, which is a condition wherein the brain develops too many folds.  This sweet little thing was born with it ...


She spent way too much time around doctors and tubes and needles, but she was always surrounded by an amazing family that is full of love.

  

In return, she filled their home with her incredible spirit and smile!  Miss M passed away last night.  While she was not expected to live very long, this was not anticipated.  She had made amazing progress over the past few months.

It is going to be a big weekend for this sweet family .. celebrating a wedding and the beginning of a new family .. and saying goodbye to this precious little girl.

My heart aches for them tonight.  Yes, we know where she is and we know her future is secure, but it will still take time for the hole left in each of their hearts to heal.  May the Lord be with them this weekend and surround them with people who will love and support them.
