I went to my old blog and on there I posted a video that my cousin made for us while Reagan was in the hospital and her boyfriend had written the beautiful song about Reagan that is palying in the background. It's such a beautiful video. it brought back the memory of being at Children's Hospital for so long and it brought back the feelings I felt as each day came and went. My God is SO faithful! Looking back at that time in our lives it just seems like such a blur and almost unreal. Looking back, it doesn't seem like I actually went through all of that! It has only been almost 5 months since she has been home! and I can not believe how much my precious angel has grown....She amazes me everyday.
When we were in Children's I remember one day where we spoke with the neurologist about her head bleed and the seizures she had a couple of weeks prior. He told us that she could potentially be a "slow learner"....Hearing that broke my heart! Having a child, you want him/her to be 100% perfect in every way. I was not prepared to take care of a mentally ill child, but if that was God's plan...I would do it diligently. But now...almost 5 months later...Reagan shows NO signs of being "slow" ..she has accomplished every milestone on time, if not EARLIER...yes! I said earlier! That is just a true and VERY REAL example of God's love and faithfulness! She is a "normal" 6 month old baby...It is so hard to remember those days when we were in Birmingham and going through trials day-to-day. But when I go back to watch that video or look at pictures, the memories just floods my mind, and my heart. 
I pray that Reagan's story will be a testimony of faith, hope, and love. Faith in knowing that God will provide, hope in knowing that He will be with you in the midst of ANY trial you may be facing, and love, the "greatest of all". God's Love is unsurpassable and the most AMAZING love you will EVER encounter. Through Reagan's struggle I have found his Love even more. God has and will forevermore receive the glory!!
