This is my Rainee Bug~~~
My pride,
My joy,
And the source of many, many worries and fears...
She looks like this 4-6 times a day.
This is her reality.
It is not gonna get better
Rainee bug has a special joy about her that everyone notices her. To the point that when Pastor Mel did her baby dedication last week he attributed it to her. Its like she always sees the angels.
She talks and giggles, and tells stories, that nobody can understand.
God has worked miracles in her life many times. From when she was in my womb. And I had contractions when our house tried to burn down. God stopped those contractions, God woke up mommy and warned her BEFORE the fire got out of control.
God saved Rainee by letting her be full-term. She tried for months to come up premmie.
God saved Rainee by opening her airways just enough to breathe and get her to Childrens hospital by airplane.
God saved Rainee by allowing her mommy to stop hemoraghing after her mommy pushed Rainee out to save Rainee's life due to her heart rate dropping to 70.
Rainee's middle name is GRACE it means a gift from God. She IS my gift.
This picture is part of Rainee's story. It will never completely disappear from my mind.
Rainee's story is long, and complicated and not something easy to explain to a passer by.
Everybody loves Rainee, and wants to kiss her cheeks. Her siblings all spoil her, and fight over who gets to entertain her.
Rainee IS a special gift of God.
Rainee is sick again. The doctor wanted to admit her last night. Mommy and daddy probably should have let them. But mommy was too tired to make a good decision. She will probably get admitted today.
Mommy and daddy have finally realized that things are not getting better. And are going through a grieving process. Can you pray for them?
Rainee is my gift. And I love her!
Update~~the steroids worked just enough, so that Rainee got to stay home. Mommy and daddy are taking turns napping today, because they were up ALL night with baby Rae.

Awww! What a sweetie!
These are thte verses that comfort me most about my children, and myself. I hope they bless you!
For you created my inmost being;
you knit me together in my mother's womb.
I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful,
I know that full well.
My frame was not hidden from you
when I was made in the secret place.
When I was woven together in the depths of the earth, your eyes saw my unformed body.
All the days ordained for me
were written in your book
before one of them came to be.
How precious to me are your thoughts, O God!
How vast is the sum of them!
Were I to count them,
they would outnumber the grains of sand.
When I awake,
I am still with you.
Psalm 139:13-17
I actually like to read the whole of Psalm 139 and put the child's name in where it says "me."
Dear Dad, thank You for making little Rainee for Tonia & hubby to love. Thank You that she has such caring parents. Of all the people in the world, You chose these parents for these children and these children for these parents. Father, show them Your sovereign love and mercy each day. Give Mom & Dad YOUR peace that You will show them how to care for Rainee and the other bebes. We know that the future is not a mystery nor is it frightening to You because You are the I AM ~ the Alpha & Omega. The One that is and will be ~ FOREVER! In your precious Son, Jesus' name. Amen! {v]
She's beautiful. What a wonderful tribute to her. I will keep her in my prayers.
My heart goes out to you and to Rainee. I have walked this road with my Steve. It is long, difficult and frightening.
I'll be keeping you in my prayers.
My heart and my prayers go out to you as well.
