First and formost I am a bible believing, born-again Christian. I am a single Mom with a full time job and I am constantly in awe of God's goodness and faithfulness in my life. Without the Lord I could do nothing. He is my rock and my salvation.

Walking, walking, walking....
Mila, mommy and I....walking to see the horses....walking once we got to Target.....walking once we got to Kohls. She wants to be outside...walking....or should I say mommy and I walk, she rides in the stroller.
It is so wonderful to have her wanting to go outside. For the last 2 weeks mommy has pretty much been confined to her room with sweet little Mila. She is so much a mommy's girl now. She loves baths in Nana's tub and getting her hair gelled. She had her first McDonalds chicken nuggets and french fries...yummy...she liked those.
This Friday our little Derrick is one years old. How the year has gone by. It has been a good year, it has been a blessed year. Mila is doing as well as can be expected....this is the 6th month and the only real change we have noticed is that is can be a "terrible two" when she does get the results she wants. She hasn't colored or used her markers in over a month, but every morning she has to have two new stickers put on her hands.
She likes ice cream and yogurt and Cadbury eggs. She knows soon the Easter bunny will be here.
Our thanks to all of you for the continued support and love and those who have sent gifts in the last couple of weeks....blessings to you, You all our Mila's and this families angels....we thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
Hugs to all of you.....Sher (Nana)

The Days go by.....
Today Mila is at visitation and Andi is at a movie with her brother and a family friend. This week there have been some changes in Mila. They put her on a pain patch and I think part of the medicine in there was, "I only want Mommie."
She really has been hanging on to her mom for the last 4 days. Andi and I even had to pick her up early from visitation on Monday because she was crying out of control and wanting her mommie. Once we got her in the car and headed home it was, "I happy now....go home." She absolutely melts my heart. She calmed right down and was chattering up a storm about cookies and Barbie and going home and mommie. Yesterday Andi spent the entire day in her room with her and she was so content to have mommie next to her and take a nap with her.
I believe she is getting as much of mommie time as she can. She hasn't had quite as much energy lately as she had and she truly loves mommie to hold her and rock her. Her little belly laugh video brought tears of joy to my eyes knowing that she still wants so much to experience everything she can that her little world here has to offer.
I wish she was old enough to truly comprehend how many people know her and love her. When I look back to the day this all began, none of us in this family would have believed that so many beautiful souls would have taken Mila and Andi's story to heart and be so generous with love, prayers and gifts. Because of what the doctors said when Mila was released from the hospital, we truly felt our time with her was limited. You have helped and are continuing to help Andi to be able to be home here with her instead of having to go to work. This I know has given her a peace of mind and allowed her to focus on what she needed to focus on....her precious little girl. When we asked her to come and live with us, we were fully prepared to provide her with whatever we were able to do, but you wonderful friends are helping to make that easier.
Thank you for sharing your love and compassion with us and know that we are so grateful for the wonderful things that you daily say and do. If we have missed mentioning something that was sent, I want to personally thank you now. The days have taken a different urgency at times and it is not that we are not grateful for all that is being done, we sometimes just forget to put it into writing.
Mila will, I believe be not only a part of our hearts forever, but I know across this country and parts of this world there are those of you for the rest of your days here on this earth will remember Mila and look forward to the day you will get to meet this amazing little girl.
Hugs and thanks to all of you....our friends....our extended family....Mila's angels~~~!!!!
