baby brynn.

i'm always very careful about saying, "i know how you feel". i've been this way for a long, long time because i think that we each experience completely different emotions in situations. i hate when someone says, "oh...i know how you feel...you'll be fine."

usually, i want to scream that they don't know how i feel and that i don't think i will be fine.

but yesterday i realized that maybe sometimes we do feel similar pains.

clint worked with a lady named kathy when he was at his former office. she worked directly with clint. everyday except friday.

her son and his wife recently had a baby. the baby was born early at 30 weeks. her name is brynn. the baby is brynn. anyway, brynn is in the nicu in missouri. she weights 2 pounds, 5 ounces.

there were so many of you who prayed for pratt when he was in the hospital. so, i'm coming to you asking you to pray for brynn and her family. their blog is on my list below...so feel free to go over and keep up with her progress.

prayer is the ONLY thing that got me through the week of pratt being in the nicu. reading through the posts by brynn's mother has brought back so many emotions.

so for all of you who prayed for pratt...would you please keep little brynn in your prayers. i know that her family would greatly appreciate it.

much love, han.

Hannah,
This is Brooke (Brynn's mom). I got your comment on my blog but didn't know how to find yours...that's how green I am at this whole thing. Kathy emailed me your blog address and then I got to see this entry. I'm all welled up at your sweet entry on Brynn's behalf. It's funny--I felt exactly the same way when I read your comments on our blog--you really do get how I'm feeling. It doesn't really matter if it's 1 day in the NICU or 30, the feelings as a mother are the same. I just wanted to say thank you...

you know you're in love when you can't fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams. - dr. seuss

About Me

My photo
i'm a girl who likes to write. not a girl that's necessarily good at writing. it's cathartic, i think. and boy do i need that from time to time. i married a wonderful man named clint in may of 2007. he is everything i am not. he is calm. he makes plans. he is organized. his truck is always clean. his clothes are hung by types of shirt/color/size/etc. i'm full of nervous energy. i'm spur of the moment. i can't ever find what i'm looking for. we live in my car...pretty much. i'm lucky if my clothes are within ten feet of my closet. God gave us a precious angel of a baby in september of 2008. his name is pratt allen. he is 2.5 years old.we have another little one on the way. his name is max wesley. and he is due may 19th. somehow i'll be the mother of two boys. craaaaa.zy. i spend my days cleaning house. picking worms and caterpillars out of the flower beds. cooking meals. shopping at target. washing clothes. playing on the floor. reading books. doing puzzles. traveling to sonic. and the library. and blogging. i hope you enjoy our blog. feel free to leave a comment. hopefully it's a nice one. i tend to wear my heart on my sleeve.
