Student of the Month Olivia!!

Congratulations to Olivia on Student of the month. I had to hold on to this secret for a while. School was cancelled the first day she would have gotten her certificate and then she came home with strep throat the next Friday she was to get it. But her awesome principle made a point to come to her class and give her the certificate!!

Alexis Student of the Month!!!

So I got a phone call about 10 minutes before Alexis got on the bus for school. It was her teacher, asking me not to be mad at her, she was suppose to call me a few days ago. Well Alexis made Student of the month for April and she was getting her award that morning in just a couple of hours. I was not to tell her, it was to be a surprise. I called my husband and he left work to come and watch her get her award, she was so excited. And had no suspicion she was getting an award even though she saw us come in. :)

Madeline

Our sweet Madeline Jean, had 8 very good days in the NICU. By day 3 Maddie had moved to high flow nasal cannulas for breathing, she was taking feeds and as spunky as ever. On day 8 she became ill, her stomac became enlarged, she was critcal, on day 9 the Doctors took a look inside and found all of her intestines and half of her stomac had died. We had her baptised and held her, as soon as she was in my arms skin to skin with me, we removed her breathing assistance and let her go very quickly and peacefully. We would later find that the cause of her death was NEC (Necrotizing Entrocolitis). We feel blessed to have had her for 9 days.
