I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. (Psalm 139:14) Being grown in faith because of my daughters diagnosis of Trisomy 18, a rare genetic syndrome. This is my reality of loving Alyssa and the impact she makes in our family. I praise God for showing us His grace and revealing our human frailty throughout this journey.

Starting Solids
Alyssa started eating solids consistently last week. She's up to eating 2tbsp's a day. We are slowly working up the levels. Remember that aspiration and choking is a big concern.. so baby steps. As you can see dining etiquette is something we will work on next. right now we just want to get the food in and keep it in!
