Dear Jordy-Bug,
Tonight we are going to the Blue Springs/DeSmet playoff football game. To most women, that doesn't sound like much of a date. But to your Mommy, it's another opportunity to be with Daddy in an atmosphere he loves, surrounded by friends and coaches he doesn't get to see very often. Besides, who doesn't love nachos and soft pretzels for dinner? So, even though it's not a "Football-Free Friday," it's a Friday night I get to spend with Daddy. I am always thankful for time with him. Since you can't be at the game with us tonight, please tell the angels to watch over the players and ask God to keep them safe, and make sure you root for Blue Springs (our friend Nolan coaches them.) I love you sweet girl.
Love,
On March 14, 2012 at 10:58am, our precious Jordyn was born. She was 7lbs, 6oz, 20.5 inches long, had dark brown hair, beautiful blue eyes,...and no heartbeat. Because she was deprived of oxygen during delivery, she spent her time here on earth in the NICU, surrounded by family and friends. We sang to her, read to her, bathed her, combed her crazy hair, changed her diapers, prayed with her, and cuddled her until she died in my arms on the evening of March 28th. These are my love letters to her.

30 Days of Thanks: Day 16--Friday "Date" Night
I'm a wife to an amazing man, a mother to a beautiful baby girl in heaven, and her little sister and baby brother on earth. I'm a daughter, a sister, an aunt, a niece, a cousin, a friend, a Christian, an Instructional Coach, a Packer Fan, a Badger Fan, and a bit of a neat freak.

On March 14, 2012, I gave birth to Jordyn, the most beautiful baby girl ever. During delivery, however, she was deprived of oxygen. We lived with her in the NICU for two weeks, loving her, holding her, reading to her, singing to her, bathing her, changing her diapers, styling her full head of dark brown hair, praying over her, and sharing her with friends and family, until she went home to Jesus on March 28, 2012. These are my love letters to Jordyn Tyse-Dallas "TD" Sander; our little Jordy-Bug.
