Do not give up; the beginning is always the hardest.
For whatever reason I felt it necessary to blog one more time about my boy. We went out to dinner tonight to Pei Wei for Eddie's birthday! I didn't plan on feeling so emotional but I truly am.
My heart and my life is huge because of my wonderful son. He brings joy to my days, calmness to stress and smiles when he knows I need them the most. It is a feeling like no other to be a mother. It is my world. Tonight he ate his favorite dish the Chicken Teriyaki with Lo Mein. Caroline also liked his meal. I won't ever forget the night before Eddie was born. Jeremy and I went to see a movie wtih Heath and Amy Dowell. I am pretty sure it was the last movie I have seen in a theatre. I remember how sleepless my night was. I remember just waiting to go to the hospital. I couldn't wait to meet my son for the very first time. And from the moment I held him for the very first time I knew that no matter what would happen in life that I would always have him.
So I say again from Eddie's fortune cookie, Do not give up; the beginning is always the hardest. Funny how I fortune cookie message can be applied to so many situations.
Love,
Amy

Happy 3rd Birthday to Eddie! I believe it was just about this time that he arrived. :) I remember checking in all day while you were at the hospital, wow times goes by quickly. That seems so long ago now.
The time stamp on your blog doesnt quite match, I think Eddie was born around 3:30, right?
Happy birthday Eddie! What a sweet blog. Somehow, I found myself much more emotional on Hana's 3rd b-day than the first two. These kids are so amazing and growing so fast. How proud are we to be their mommas?! :)
Hello Amy,
You don't know me. I was doing a search on Dr. Tabor on google and your site came up. I have only meet Dr. Tabor once. Tomorrow will be our second meeting. I'm having to undergo genetic testing since I lost two infant sons to a metabolic disorder. Needless to say I'm scared and restless hence the online searches. Reading what you wrote about Dr. Tabor really helped in calming my nerves. And what you wrote about the beggining always being the hardest is so true. I am so thankful that I came across your site. I'm truly sorry for the loss of your daughter. May you and your family be blessed over and over.
Sincerely,
Shelly
