Nathan and Marsha: Soul Ache
http://nathanandmarsha.blogspot.com/2011/11/soul-ache.html
Sunday, November 6, 2011. I just left the University Church of Christ where we spent time in praise and in prayer for all of those involved in the horrible accident on Friday. My heart aches for all of those involved, but especially for Anabel's mom as my heart so recently knows the hurt of loosing a child. I'm going to give you a donkey when you move. I can't wait! She hugged me tight, with tear-filled eyes, aching for her friend who hurt. She told me that she loved me, she was praying for me, and s...

Nathan and Marsha: Mother's Day
http://nathanandmarsha.blogspot.com/2012/05/mothers-day.html
Wednesday, May 16, 2012. Sunday was my first Mother's Day with one of my children living in Heaven. It was a day of empty arms with my son in Heaven and my daughter not ready to be in my arms yet. But even with empty arms. it was a day spent with a heart full. Look at those precious lips. Yes that is her foot right up there by her face. looks comfortable huh? Then she got upset about something. Uh oh how pitiful! Oh, ok everything's OK. I'll just go back to being cute. I am in love with these pictures!

Nathan and Marsha: Lorabelle's Birth
http://nathanandmarsha.blogspot.com/2012/07/lorabelles-birth.html
Sunday, July 1, 2012. So sweetly offered to take pictures of her birth. When we found out that it would be by c section, we didn't think that was going to happen. But, we asked and Shelly said as long as the anesthesiologist agrees. So when he came to talk to me that morning, we asked and he said yes! At that point, they said I was going to have to be put to sleep. I was so upset! Our chunky girl weighed in at 7 pounds 14 ounces and was 19 1/4 inches long. Oh, I love that chubby face! She was awake and a...

http://nathanandmarsha.blogspot.com/2012/03/gender-reveal-party.html
Friday, March 16, 2012. I cannot wait. I need to know! But, Nathan and I thought about it and decided that it would be pretty cool to share that moment with our friends and family and church family that have all been walking our journey with us.

You'll see her in it in some of the other pictures. Nancy hung some sono pictures for everyone to get a...

I love every picture so I put them all on here. I don't know how I will ever decide what to hang on my wall! 160; &...

Nathan and Marsha: Lorabelle's Nursery
http://nathanandmarsha.blogspot.com/2012/07/lorabelles-nursery.html
Friday, July 27, 2012. As soon as I found out that I was pregnant, I began doing something that something had kept me from doing with my son, I began preparing for my baby to come home. We picked out a cowhide rug and bought the bed we picked out for Hank. And when we found out she was a girl, we began preparing everything else for the nursery. We bought this dresser at Kid's Village. Then we painted it with many many coats of turquoise and added these rustic flower door pulls from Relics. Collection to ...

Nathan and Marsha: May 2014
http://nathanandmarsha.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html
Wednesday, May 28, 2014. I'm really not sure what it is about today that brought me here. right back to those heart-pounding, stomach-dropping life changing hours when Hank suddenly went from doing so well to lifeless in my arms. It makes my breath quicken and my stomach drop to think of that moment in time when we went from proud parents boasting of his latest accomplishments- to terrified. Then heartsick. Then dropping earth over his body. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). 160;  ...

Nathan and Marsha: Hank's Story.
http://nathanandmarsha.blogspot.com/2012/06/hanks-story.html
Tuesday, June 5, 2012. So, here it is. the story of my first born son, Hank Allen Smith. It was Wednesday, January 27th. My chest had been so sore for several weeks and I couldn't remember when my last cycle had been. I decided I better take a test. So, I did first thing when I got to work that morning and I could barely stand on my own two feet when that little pink line popped up and changed my world. This is the best news ever! We ordered our families to silence. We weren't going to announce the p...
