Sharie, Suzy, and Stephanie, during my darkest days and scariest moments, you never even hesitated to take it on or shy away from it. You allowed me to fully express my emotions and my needs in my grief, fear, and even those little glimmers of happiness.
We wanted to send a little birthday cheer from our baby boy H! It has been one year since we were last inside your world, and we have not forgotten what a difference you made in our lives. A year ago, I was truly unable to put into words how much love and appreciation I truly had for what you did for us. Today I want to say...From the bottom of my heart, Thank you for all that you did, and the compassion from every single person who walked into our walls helped so much more than you will ever know! We will always hold a special place for you in our hearts!

Sharie, Suzy, and Stephanie, during my darkest days and scariest moments, you never even hesitated to take it on or shy away from it. You allowed me to fully express my emotions and my needs in my grief, fear, and even those little glimmers of happiness. In a space with such heaviness, that was an "out of the norm" experience for you all. You didn't even hesitate to be right by our side and face it head-on with us! You all held a very special place in our hearts to begin with, and that will never be forgotten. You truly brought him to life for me in that delivery room, you weren't afraid to talk about our life, our history, and you did absolutely every little thing to make me more calm, comfortable, and feel love beyond belief. There are truly no words that I could ever say even to begin to express the deep gratitude and love I have for you helping me to bring into this world my absolute miracle in a time when I needed it most!

I love you all and hope that this little something brightens your day and reminds you that you are so important to this world, you are valued beyond belief, and you have the power within you to make such an impactful difference to those who need it most! We love you so much, and thank you for truly every little thing!
