Mark Johnson was born on Saturday July 10th, at 8:31 a.m. He weighed 3 pounds, 12 ounces and was 13.5 inches long. We were blessed with one hour and twelve with Mark, before he went to his heavenly home at 9:43 a.m. Mark experienced holding hands with his mommy and daddy, hugs and kisses, being baptized, and being told “I love you” an uncountable amount of times. Mark is deeply loved and will always remain our precious baby...Mark, we will hold you again in heaven one day.
I will be writing more about this later this week, but right now I can't.
I've been following your story since you first posted on DS...I have been praying for you. I am so sorry...

ReplyDeleteHey Mama I am just in awe of his sweet little face... and that beautiful hair!
ReplyDeleteI was praying that you would be able to spend at least an hour with him! And God is always Faithful!! He knows each one of us from the inside out. I know that your heart is wretching and aching from this. I went through a hard mis-carriage... and there is evident proof in the bible of how we will see the loved ones we lost again someday! I like to think and believe that my own sweet baby will meet me there with open arms :) Your a strong woman and with time God will get you and your family through this!! I'm touched and blessed by your story and your sweet little Mark! May he forever be in the arms of the Lord until you see him someday! Blessings and prayers to your family!
