good bye sweet child

last night we lost the baby. while we have had a few weeks to prepare, the process was intense and scary at times. i am thankful that the pain was manageable (with a little vicodin) and that aaron was home as soon as it began. the main event lasted from about 5:30-9:30 pm...but then continued until about 3:30 am. we saw the doctor today and all seems well. i carried thaddeus from may 10, 2008 through july 30, 2008. while this was WAY too short of a time for us, we bless him as he awaits us in heaven now. i am certain that this isn't something that is quicky "gotten-over". we spent 2 very hopeful weeks, and then a week of sadness, loss, and fear...and now we are in this week, the week of the loss of our baby. but God IS good and he is with us even here and even now. i am not able to thank you all enough for the many prayers that were said and the encouragement that we recieved from you. i only hope to help you all in ways that you have helped us. we are certainly blessed...very very blessed.

love, aaron, annette, adin, and tobias
