After a little peer pressure from my blogging friends, I finally decided to give it a try. I was realizing that those close to me are always wanting to know how we are doing and are not always sure if they should ask (Please do, by the way). Since it is not always easy to delve into the depths of grief in the parking lot at Target or in a voicemail, I figured this may be a better way to let you know how things are going. Wish me luck! I am new at this blogging thing and it is new for me to put all my feelings out there for the world to read. I hope that our journey will help someone else on theirs, and I hope it will help our friends and family help us on ours. May God bless you on whatever journey you are on.

April! I stumbled across your blog tonight. I don't know what happened to your precious Evan, but I did hear (through a Sunday School class email) that you and Cory lost him and ever since that day I have been thinking about you and praying for you. My heart breaks every time I imagine it ... you are on my mind so much. I am still praying for you and look forward to keeping up with you through your blog.
Love, Summer (Spain) Spooner
p.s. Allison is beautiful!

April, I am also thrilled you started this blog because I think about y'all often. (And I'm glad I stalk enough blogs to have located it!!) We hate that there has been so much hurting in your lives lately and I hope that writing about your family's adventures will help in even a small way. I know we will be blessed to read it. love, emily
Dear April,
My daughter Misty encouraged me to see your Blog page. I have to agree that you are a wonderful writer. Your Blog set-up is beautiful!! The music so meaningful. I am so sorry for your loss. I will be praying for God's grace and comfort to see you & your family thru such a difficult loss.
In Christ's love,
Jo Brown
April,
I'm so sorry you lost your beautiful son Evan (the picture is precious) & wish that we weren't on this journey together but I'm glad you found me. I hope you find writing and sharing about him as therapeutic as I have about Levi. I have good days & bad days and days where I trust in God's goodness and days where I'm angry but I try to just be open (because before I started reading other people's blogs I thought maybe I was alone in my feelings & have since found quite the contrary). I think it's wonderful that he and his dad share part of their names- it's one more connection they have in his too brief life. Take care & I'll be thinking of you often.
April,
Summer Spooner told me about your blog and your sweet Evan. My first son William was stillborn at 26 weeks, 3 years ago. Would love to offer a listening ear as someone who has been in a similar heartbreaking situation. I also graduated from Baylor.
