Genesis 2:4-25 – Adam and Eve
Water Gives Life In Genesis 2:5-6 we see that, until water sprung forth, there could be no life. The Bible tells us that Christ is the living water.

So, from the first words, we start to learn about God and His creation. As we learn more about Him, we can exercise more faith and… Continue reading Genesis 1-2:3 – The Creation
New Year, Old Testament
This year, our church is studying the Old Testament in Sunday School. I am excited to really dive deep into it and learn new things this year. I have not always been a diligent scripture reader. I have gone through different periods with my scripture study (as I am sure you have too). I have… Continue reading New Year, Old Testament
Take It One Step at a Time
Life with Cystic Fibrosis means daily medication and treatments to prevent lung damage and other prescriptions to treat existing symptoms. Going into our daughter’s first clinic appointment, I was worried that I would be overwhelmed by all of the information and instructions for care that I received. Less than a week after our daughter was… Continue reading Take It One Step at a Time

If you haven’t read my other post about our NICU experience, click here to read it first. We left off with my daughter’s admission to the NICU in a larger hospital downtown.

So, I was looking for any clue that she may have a meconium ileus. I struggled to breastfeed her the whole first night after she was born. I… Continue reading Trust Your Gut
Our Daughter’s Arrival

The waiting feels like an eternity when you are pregnant. When I was pregnant with my daughter, I felt like this eternity… Continue reading Our Daughter’s Arrival
Let the Preparation Begin
Remember how I said I need to prepare for everything? Well, that was magnified with our daughter’s diagnosis. After receiving confirmation that she does indeed have Cystic fibrosis, I went on the hunt for all the information I could find. I wanted scientific information, I tried to find moms of children with CF, and I… Continue reading Let the Preparation Begin
It is Okay to Grieve
When I first heard that our daughter might have Cystic Fibrosis, I was crushed. I knew in my heart that she did have CF before the amniocentesis confirmed it. I did not know how to feel. I never imagined I would have a child with any chronic health condition. I figured I would have at… Continue reading It is Okay to Grieve
