Angel Jersey

Friday, January 9, 2009

Our little heart sister Jersey is only a couple months old. Yesterday, she earned her wings. She had a complex heart defect and has spent her entire life in the hospital. Her sweet parents got to hold her yesterday and the doctors unhooked all her tubes and wires as she peacefully passed into our loving Saviors arms. Please pray for this hurting family in their grief!

Longing for the day that He wipes away every tear and binds the brokenhearted!

I followed Jersey’s story and too was very saddened by the loss. May she be healed in Heaven!
Bless you Angel Jersey.

Mandy

Blog author. Photography enthusiast. The Lord is my chief affection and my heart belongs to these 7 littles and the man who made me a momma. Party-planner. Birth doula. Adventure-seeker. Idealistic. Introvert masquerading as a people person. A taste for the finer things in life and convinced I was born in the wrong century.

Tristan

Our adventurous first born and balance-bringer to the primarily female dominated family. Bold with banter and always up for a debate. Talented in soccer and certified in scuba diving. Student of all things wild and lover of all creatures great and small. Country boy at heart. Content in nature. Contemplative. Intense. Inventive.

Abi

Twin to Tristan. Resident babysitter and big-sister-extraordinaire. High functioning and wise beyond her years. Athletic and artistic. Mom’s photography protégé. Mature. Creative. Responsible and detail oriented. Doesn’t get her feathers ruffled easily and is wired like her daddy. Confident and capable!

The “girl next door”. Can hold her own playing football with the guys….but loves her nailpolish and a good chic flick. Contagious giggler. Loves to lead and keeps us all on task. Confident and courageous. Straight A student. Academic. Athletic. Adaptable.

Izzy

“Sunshine” personified! The perfect “middle” sandwiched in our family. The peace-keeper in our home. She exudes joy, selflessness and is always looking out for others and giving of her best. Master chef aspirer and gymnast wannabe. Freckled-faced, miss-mess, “cupcake” sweetheart!

Gigi

The bookend to our family (or so we thought for 5 years). Blue-eyed-babe. Spunky and slightly spoiled. Doted on by all. Curly-topped, dancing-diva, child-celebrity in Thailand. Naptime, M&M’s, books, card games, gum and dresses that “twirl” are a few of her favorite things. Super proud to finally be a big sister!

Eden

Our pleasant, perfect, delightful surprise from the Lord. Tristan’s long-awaited brother and the girls favorite entertainment. Our strawberry blonde little peach. This man-cub is the apple of our eye, the icing on the cake, and the recipient of much love and affection.
