I saw this poem on a website the other day. I think it is just beautiful.
At first glance
you were so small
I hardly saw a baby at all,
with tubes and wires
a frightening sight
but you were in for a
big fight.
Not even two pounds
just skin and bones,
your body so small
with problems so big,
but you fought hard
and continued to grow.
So many fears
So many tears.
You are home now
and growing big
I love you dear,
more than words can say.
A miracle baby
A gift from God.
You showed the world
You showed us all.

What can i say about my Gracey? she is just beautiful to me. She was born early at 29 weeks due to pre-eclampsia. She was born via emergency c-section and is perfect in everyway.
She was in hospital for 2 months which felt like a lifetime for us. She had only a few complications like being on oxygen for 4 weeks and she just had problems feeding which was a lot of the reason why she was in hospital for so long. We had been told that for a 29 week baby she did very well. She was born weighing 1289gms and looked really healthy when we first saw her.
She is now 18 months old and has been walking for a few months. She is just having a few troubles with talking so we are going to speak to her doctor to see if we can get a referral to a speech therapist. She is an energetic little girl and we love her dearly.
