I just watched your video. It’s one I had seen before. My heart aches for you and that time in your life. I’m so impressed with you, as I am with my own daughter, and how you are such an advocate for your child. Constantly working with them in the big things and in the little things. Finding joy and thankfulness in it all because you need that to keep on keeping on. I wanted to encourage you especially in one area. In your video you said you “let your guard down and told God…” and then “but it didn’t work”. I’m a believer in God and His love and mercies. I just want to say God has been there in our lives with my granddaughter. He has guided our thoughts, my daughter and son-in-law in their decisions for her and my granddaughter has come so very far in her little life. It hasn’t been without heartaches, fears, doubts and failures. But in the hard stuff He has lifted us and carried us through. I just encourage you to maybe “let your guard down” a little more and let Him love you through it. I appreciate you and your beautiful family. I look forward to watching how you all do life and especially seeing Cooper as he grows and becomes everything God has for him to be.

It’s so courageous of you to share your story. I think this will provide much inspiration and solace to other parents who may also feel alone in the world.
