First toe nail painting

Aunt Arica painted Maggie's toes for the first time. Pink!
I always, always wanted to paint Jonas' toes, but after his girlie hairdo
I thought maybe I shouldn't...for Whit's sake.
Now I have no excuses not too! Yea for nail polish!

Jessica said...: So cute! I just got caught up reading all your recent posts and am glad to hear you enjoyed Christmas even with all the moving you did! You amaze me. I can imagine how difficult this Christmas must have been for you without Jonas here to share it with. I have a difficult time every holiday because I always wonder if it will be Nicholas's last one with us and then I get mad at myself for thinking like that, but I guess those are the thoughts of a mom with a terminally ill child. I have to say that your positivity and optimistic spirit in your posts after Jonas's passing are truly amazing. I hope that in this new year you may find some comfort and peace. Happy 2011!; January 1, 2011 at 3:16 PM

Whit and I have been married for 9 years now. How time flies when you are having fun. We have the most precious baby boy named Jonas. He is in Heaven right now, waiting for us to return to him. We miss him every minute. We also have a little girl named Maggie, who has the same disease that her brother had. Time with her is limited as well, so we continue to do what we did with her brother...enjoy every minute! We are so blessed to have the most beautiful children and even though our time with them will be short, we know we will be with them again!

Jonas Mathie

Jonas was born on December 2, 2007. At six weeks old Jonas was diagnosed with a genetic disorder called SMA (spinal muscular atrophy). SMA Type I is a terminal genetic disease that results in loss of nerves in the spinal cord and weakness of the muscles connected with those nerves. Jonas beat the odds and lived with us for almost three years! He returned to heaven November 18, 2010. Every day we had with him here on earth was our heaven. We are better people because of Jonas and miss him everyday.
