A couple of weeks ago Mark decided to pull out his guitar and play some music. So I pulled out Em’s “band in a box” for her to play along with him. She had a blast.
(please excuse the weird pictures, I was playing with camera settings—not very effectively it seems)
She kept sticking the kazoo and harmonica in Mark’s mouth.
She helped him strum.
We all had fun. It did my heart good to watch. I took video. I’m thinking it’s just too awesome for the internet though.
One leg of our family journey was Embryo Adoption {Embryo Donation}. Pictured above is a day 3 embryo--3 days after conception, as small as the period at the end of a sentence, and it IS LIFE! Because each one is unique, frozen embryos are sometimes called Snowflakes {Snowflakes is the name of an Embryo Adoption program through Nightlight Christian Adoption}, or Frosties. We had seven frosties, frozen at day 3, and donated by one couple, and 6 other frosties from another couple. We have had three separate embryo transfers, with three embryos transferred each time. One transfer resulted in a pregnancy. Unfortunately that baby, that we later named Bella Hope, went to heaven shortly before the end of the first trimester.
