Hi everyone out there viewing my Uncle Jason's show! I'm new to this world; only two days old. I was born the day after Christmas, and I am a miracle. All babies are miracles, but I'm an extra special one. You see, my Mommy,
Heidi, was diagnosed four years ago with Ewing's Sarcoma, a rare form of childhood bone cancer. The initial prognosis was hopeful, but scary. My Mommy underwent extensive treatments, including chemotherapy, to make sure the cancer was gone. It was really hard for Mommy and Daddy and all who cared about them. At the end of it all, the doctors told them that she was in remission, and since then no traces of cancer have been found. The doctors also told them that my Mommy would never be able to have any babies.
.
As you can imagine, that was devastating for them. But a while after getting all better, my parents began looking into adopting a little baby who needed a home. They also moved to Texas and my Mommy began going to chiropractor school and my Daddy worked on becoming a chaplain in the military.
.
Just as they were very serious about adopting, a miracle happened! They found out that I was beginning to grow inside my Mommy's tummy. Everyone was so amazed and happy and excited and grateful.
.
And now that I'm here, everyone is extra, extra amazed and happy and excited and grateful.

Here I am with my Daddy, Daniel, who is the fourth of Uncle Jason's siblings. Uncle Jason is the oldest. Now he has four nephews and two nieces.

And here I am with my Daddy and Mommy. Don't I look cute and sweet? I'll bet I have as much spunk and personality as my parents and I'm lucky that they are so smart, thoughtful, hard-working, and adventurous.
.
Who knows? Maybe in a couple of years they'll have another miracle baby.

Thanks Jason that was very nice of you. Also, thanks for the couple hundred diapers, they'll be put to good use. Dan
So beautiful! The baby and the story!
I am excited about Henry too. He is already an amazing kid. The fact that he has the ability to write a post on his uncle's blog on the 4th day of his life is a miracle on its own.
As a family that has seen many of God's miracles come from the darkness of childhood cancer, we rejoice with Baby Henry and his family. May God keep His mighty hand on them and continue to shower them with blessings.
A true miracle baby indeed - and what a sweet little miracle he is.
congrats! what a lil cutie

I am sure that is absolutely the best Christmas present anyone could have received this year. Congratulations Uncle Jason!!!!!
Henry....you are a miracle baby...welcome to the world. We hope that the world is a much better place by the time you are writing your blog.
In the mean time you just kick back and enjoy being a baby. Your Mommy and Daddy love you more than you can even imagine.
