As I was enjoying the warmer weather while walking the breezeway from parking garage to the hospital entrance at UNC today, I began to reflect on the fact that the since the seasons have changed and it is April again, 2 full season cycles have come and gone now that we have been walking this breezeway. Countless times. Although it's not usually a super fun thing, I'm glad we still have a reason to walk this path because that means that our son has survived! Today I pushed my cute, precocious two-year-old in to receive his monthly IVIG infusion.

As I was walking down the breezeway and "memory lane," I began to wonder just exactly what we were doing on April 8 two years ago in 2009. So I pulled up that date on this blog, and I was pleased to see that April 8 was the first time Rob and I were able to hold Brett for the first time when he was 6 days old! Rob was mostly authoring the blog in its earliest days to keep you all posted while I was busy doing the things only moms can do for babies. What a wonderful memory!

~ May we have the reason and the privilege to walk that breezeway for many, many years to come.
