CF

So a friend sent me a link to this blog: http://cfhusband.blogspot.com/. Pretty amazing stuff. I'm sort of addicted to checking in to see how Tricia and Gwyneth are doing and be encouraged by Nate.

CF is something that has touched our lives. My husband's uncle died while waiting for his double lung tranplant. But he lived a full life into his early 50's and had two great kids. I never had the priviledge of meeting him, but I've heard stories that make me think he was a pretty swell guy.

My cousin has CF. She was told she would probably never have kids. 9 months after her wedding she gave birth to a lovely full term baby girl. A few years later she was blessed with a sweet little boy. She is a year older than me and doing so well.

Tricia, Nate and Gwyneth's story just reminds me of how incredibly blessed my family has been. Stacey, my cousin, is wonderfully healthy. How good God is!

Wow. I just googled my sister Tricia's name to see who was all blogging about her and stumbled across your amazing blog. What a wonderful witness you are to other mothers. I love the examples you use of the different things your kids say and how you tie that back to what God has to say on the subject. You have a beautiful family. Keep up the good work, Mom! From a fellow bfeeder :)

Tricia's big sister, Janet

I'm joining the boat over here as it seems all my family has found their way to your blog.

I'm Tricia's older sister and I'm loving your blog. I'll be carving out some time tomorrow to do more reading but I'm psyched to find a fellow breastfeeding, cloth diapering, baby wearin', God loving momma!!!

Aww, shucks, y'all. You're too kind.

I'm happy to know Miss Gwyneth and Tricia are surrounded by such a wonderful family. I was going to email Nate to see if he needed help getting a sling, but I'll bet y'all have him covered.
