With all the tubes in Eden's mouth, unconventional feeding is required. But at least her mama gets the chance to do it.

About Eden
Eden is a miracle. (See details below)
From conception to birth, she has shown that "With God nothing will be impossible." (Luke 1:37)
After 19 years of marriage and no kids, God surprised us with little Eden.

Miracles of Eden
Here are a few of Eden's Miracles:
Ultimately, the doctors were right in the diagnosis, but the percentage of those who make it as far as Eden is minute. We are so happy we continued the pregnancy! It was worth it all for the seven days we had with her.
| * | We became pregnant at all. After 19 years of marriage and seemingly unable to have kids. |
| * | 12 Weeks. Her ultrasounds and Tina's blood tests showed Eden would not make it to 19 weeks. |
| * | 19 Weeks. The doctors were shocked that she was still around and the ultrasounds looked 'normal' |
| * | 23, 25, 29 Weeks. Doctors continued to be shocked. They told us we should expect to lose her soon. |
| * | 33 Weeks. Doctors decided to deliver her early but thought she would not survive the birth. |
| * | July 3rd. Eden did survive and lived for seven days. |
| * | She stole the hearts of Mom & Dad without doing much of anything. |
| * | She stole the hearts of many of you whom she's never met! |

Oh, Tina, she is a beautiful little girl and you are a beautiful mama. What a tender moment between mother and child. Daren and I will pray for more miracles for little Eden and look forward to meeting her some day. God bless and keep you all. Jackie and Daren
She is so precious. Praise God you have been able to "cuddle" with her. We are still praying for you and little Eden, Tina.

Treasures
One by one He took them from me,
All the things I valued most,
Until I was empty-handed;
Every glittering toy was lost.
And I walked earth's highways, grieving.
In my rags and poverty.
Till I heard His voice inviting,
"Lift your empty hands to Me!"
So I held my hands toward heaven,
And He filled them with a store
Of His own transcendent riches,
Till they could contain no more.
And at last I comprehended
With my stupid mind and dull,
That God COULD not pour His riches
Into hands already full!
