Come into my world

I just wanted to introduce myself to everyone and give you all a taste of my world. My husband and I met in college. We dated for a year and a half before he proposed and we then entered the beautiful sacrament of marriage. After being married for alittle over a year, my nephew Anthony (who is now our adopted son) came into our life. You see, Anthony is the son of my brother and his biological mother passed away when he was 3 yrs of age. My brother (he is the one on the above picture standing in the middle between my hubby and I ) was left being a single dad. After some time, my brother realized that we could give Anthony a better life than what he could possible give to him at that time. Anthony then came to live with us when he was five years of age. Little did we know that our Great God was already at work in our lives without us even knowing what his plans were.


After battling infertility for a long long time, we decided to take the route of Invitro-fertilization. January 2003, after alot of shots, and alot of time with specialist, we got the call that we were finally pregnant. We were thrilled. It was such a blessing of our GOD, for I knew that he created alittle miracle in my womb. During the pregnancy, we endured lots of complications and we were told that our baby could have Down Syndrome and we believed firmly that if our GOD would send us our baby with down syndrome then that would be his will and all we wanted was for his will to be done in our lives. And then, August 5th, 2003 came and it was known to us that our precious miracle had passed away in my womb. Through much prayer and healing, I gave birth to our stillborn precious angel of ours, he was 2lbs, 10 ounces and 16' long at 7 1/2 months. It was a bitter sweet situation but not once did I ever doubt that GOD's plan was not being done. After a couple of days of this happening, we found that our son Baby Emmanuel as we called him did pass away of complications with Down Syndrome. Please follow us on my next post - three years later 2006.
