This picture gives a bit of perspective on just how small she was. Way too small to be in this world with us.

Her loss came as a complete surprise to us. We discovered we had lost her when Lisa went in for a regular check-up on Wednesday and they could not detect a heartbeat. An ultrasound indicated she had passed on within the last day or two. It's was God's grace that allowed us to find out so quickly and not suffer the fear that would have come with early signs of miscarriage. The suddenness of it was harsh and yet a long, drawn out suffering would only have been worse. We take comfort in knowing that our angel is in heaven comforted in the arms of Jesus. We also take comfort in knowing that he cradles us in those very same arms. He knows our sorrow and feels our pain. Our wonderful pastors came to the hospital Friday morning and helped us commit our baby to the Lord. Their prayers and words of reassurance from the Bible are precious and dear to us. We could not get through this without the tremendous support we have felt from our family, friends, church family, coworkers, and the incredible hospital staff. We know we are truly blessed to have such support.
