Grace is another one of my little angels in heaven.  She was 1 of 4 babies in my womb born at 21 wk 6 days.  She was the trooper and strength in my tummy.  She was Baby A, 1st born!  Although my time was short with her, I love her dearly and hold close memories with her.  She lived 9 days, but during those 9 days, she endured so much!  My little angel was so strong through it all.  She actually started going into labor 5 days before I delivered.  Her head was actually outside of my cervix, but through it all, she held a strong heart beat and lived those 9 precious days.  She was poked and prodded, it was so sad to watch and not be able to do anything.  She was almost out of the severe woods, but the 2nd ultrasound showed a brain hemorage (severe).  That was the day of the funeral of her sisters and brother.  I had to let her go that night to join Alli, Bree, and Stephen.  It was such a hard thing to do!  I thought for sure she was going to make it, and when it didn't turn out that way, I was in disbelief.   I will forever treasure her, and think of her daily!  She was like her brother Stephen with her stubby hands and feet like their Daddy, but also had the super blonde hair like Stephen and Alli.  She had the most hair out of the blondies.   I know she is up there dancing around with Bree, Alli, and Stephen.  I miss you dearly and want so much for you to be here with me.  I hope you know how much I love you and miss you!  Please help me to feel your spirit often!  You are Mommy's precious angel!  I can't believe your 1st bday is here already!  I hope you celebrate with everyone up in heaven!  I'll be celebrating your life here!  I love you so much!
