  1. Happy anniversary to a wonderful couple! Who would have thought that your second anniversary would have been so monumental - with such a big milestone achieved.

    Welcome home Kale. You have very strong parents who love you more than you can imagine. You have made them the happiest couple in Iowa today by working so hard to come home. So many people prayed for you - God has many angels watching over you. You ARE proof that miracles happen.
    Wishing everyone a restful night!
    Love

  8. So it was your anniversary and the day you got to bring Kale home. He has it all figure out mom and dad. He had it planned to come home on this day he just wanted to test your love and well you guys past!

    That's a true boy for you. Already being ornery! However if you start to notice Kale losing his ornery side Aunt Kerry could bring over my Landon and set him back on track!

    So excited he is home! He is such a trooper! I love the stories and you are in my prayers!

  9. Hello Steph! I am friends with Shana Brown and she shared your blog with me. As the mom of a preemie born at 27 weeks...I am SO EXCITED FOR YOU TO GET HOME! I know the nurses and doctors are amazing, but there is nothing like that first week home with your little baby! I'm just so happy for the both of you that your happy little guy is home. Every baby is different, but if you ever need to talk to someone who has been thru all of it, I would love to offer a shoulder.
