Dear Jordy-Bug

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 29--My Caretaker

Dear Jordy-Bug,

This evening Mommy isn't feeling very well. I have a headache, a stomach ache, and feel yucky all over. This doesn't sound like something to be thankful for...and I'm not, really. What I am grateful for is that Daddy takes good care of me when I feel this way. He's an awesome pillow, he gets me whatever medicine I need, and he doesn't make me feel guilty for wanting to go to bed at 8pm. I'm lucky to have him in my life.

I think I'm heading to bed now, sweetie, so this is a short one tonight. Know that I love you and miss you.

Love,

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.
