Letter to our children

June 26, 2007

Dear Kyle, Billie, and Tia,

When you were born, never in our wildest dreams had we imagined how you would fill our hearts with joy, and more than a little chaos.

When we got the call from St. Peter's to bring two of you a change of clothes, never in our wildest dreams did we picture you so badly injured.

While recovering in the hospital, never in our wildest dreams did we imagine how gracious and considerate you could be to the nursing staff when you were so miserable yourselves, now how amazingly thankful we would be in the middle of the night to have Billie's quiet voice mumuring in the background to soothe her sister or brother.

When you got back on your own feet, never would we imaginge how it would bring tears to our eyes.

I know that we have already said it a dozen times, but you three have been amazing models of grace under fire.  We are so grateful for these past six months, and the support you have given to us and to each other.  We are exceptionally proud to call you our children.

All the love in the world,
Mom & Dad
