Ask and you shall receive!

Many of you left comments and emailed me saying that you would like to have your very own Green Bean Bracelets! That makes me so happy, and I love that you are all willing to help carry out the memory of the Green Beans. Really, that means so much to me! This has tuned out to be a great way to honor our angels.

This is a great opportunity to help one of our favorite charities, March of Dimes. With each purchase of a Green Bean Bracelet, a donation will be made to the March of Dimes. The bracelets are being sold for $5 each and 100 percent of the proceeds will be donated in honor of Heidi, Lily, Paige, and Rylan.

The support that we continue to get amazes me and helps me each day. I love that the memory of my babies can live on, and that they have touched so many people’s hearts.

Click the ‘Buy Now’ button above to order your bracelets. Remember, all of the proceeds will go to the March of Dimes. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

Just My Story...

Over the past three years my life has been flipped upside down. I am 31 years old and have 4 beautiful angel babies, who are fondly known as my “Green Beans”. The first of my quads, Heidi, held on as long as she could and was born on January 31, 2009 after pPROMing at 17 weeks. A few weeks later, I pPROM’d with my sweet Lily. Lily, Paige, and Rylan were all born at 22 weeks on February 23, 2009. Just after being released from the hospital empty handed, I returned with a high fever and infection. Two of the nights I spent in the hospital that week, I honestly thought I was going to die. It was the sickest and most hopeless I’ve ever been. I’m pretty sure my diagnosis was a broken heart.

My journey to parenthood has definitely had its share of happiness and heartbreaks. I got through every day by staying close to friends and family, blogging, and trusting in God that my future will be bright. All the love and support I’ve gotten has greatly helped me manage……I am alive and well, and want to be my absolute best as a result of this.

On May 1st 2011, we welcomed our sweet baby girl, Taylor, into this world. She is my miracle baby and brings so much joy and happiness to my life. She is my reminder every day that God is good and faithful.

I have come out of all of this with a better appreciation of life. I hope to make the best of this situation by helping others who will experience a similar loss.
