When Is Baby Cooper Coming Home?

Here are some pictures of Cayden, Colin, and Trinity's first trip to see Cooper since he was hospitalized last Tuesday. They miss him so much and ask everyday "When is baby Cooper coming home?"

This is my husband Chris. We met nearly a decade ago at a church retreat. I knew I was going to marry him the day I met him (no joke). We immediately fell in love and found that we had nearly everything in common. We started a list of those things and to do this day I still have the list. Ironically, we also both have genetic mutations for cystic fibrosis. When we were married for just 6 short months we went through a house fire. He rebuilt our lives (and a new home) literally from the ground up in just 6 short months. He is my best friend, a wonderful father, and he gets me through the tough days with his wittiness and sense of humor.

Colin "CW" short for "Colin William" was born in Jan of 2007. Weighing in at 10 lbs even he tipped the scales (and our hearts). 7 days later we received negative results on a sweat test. After praying much to John Paul the Great, we claim Colin to be a miracle of JPII's intercession. Colin is shy and a follower. He religiously carries 3 silky blankets affectionately called his "blue b's" with him everyone he goes (think Linus from Charlie Brown). He says "my" instead of "I" in all of his sentences. He adores being a little brother.
