Lindsey, I never want to make you sad by things I say - please, please mention it if these comments DO make your pain worse, and I will keep them to myself.
I happened this morning on a bookmark in our computer - the story that KSL did on your family before Maggie was born.
Even though I have seen it before, I had to watch it again.
And now I am crying again, because seeing Jonas with you and Whit just broke my heart. Everything in me wants him right there, now, between you, reading a book with you, building a fort with Whit, watching a video, making cookies, going to Disneyland. I just want him back and it hurts so much.
And as I always think, my hurting is NOTHING compared to your hurting.
I wanted to tell you, again, that your sweet son makes a powerful difference in this world. How can one small person make such an impact? But he DID, and he DOES, and he ALWAYS WILL.
Jonas, you spoke a lot more with those wonderful eyes than I ever can with a million words.
Yes, both those sets of eyes are so incredibly BEAUTIFUL and I think they capture the hearts of all who see! A)to me looks like J! And B)is soooooooo Maggie! Such a princess!
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.

Maggie was born August 27, 2010. Like her brother she too has Spinal Muscular Atrophy, SMA Type I. Since day four of her life she has been on medicine that has prolonged her onset and is much stronger. Each and every day is treasured and we can't wait to share stories of her brother with her.

Wow- they're identical! I think A is Jonas and B is Maggie.
I agree A=Jonas, B=Maggie
Jonas A, Maggie B. The iris color (at least on my laptop) is slightly different and A seems more Jonas and B seems more Maggie.
