Sadie’s Version of the Dream Book
Sadie’s Story………
Last Christmas we opened the greatest Christmas gift to date, a package that told us we were expecting a little girl in May after many years of trying. Little did we know, two weeks later (and four months earlier than expected) Sadie Grace would be making her very dramatic entrance into this world. Born on January 12th at 1 pound 8.9 ounces, Sadie became the smallest and youngest member of the Joyful Collectors Club. Sadie defied all odds and did extremely well in the NICU, finally coming home after 99 days in the hospital (several weeks sooner than expected). She was still on oxygen and a heart monitor when she came to her first Joyful Collector’s meeting, but as she continued to thrive, she shed these attachments by her second meeting. Now, with the fear and anxiety of last winter in the past, and a bright future on the horizon, we are coming up to Sadie’s first Christmas. And that’s where our story begins…..
