Thank you for all those who read the wonderful article about Brenna in the Springfield State Journal-Register yesterday! What a great Fathers Day "gift" to have our family featured on the front page :)
We were absolutely thrilled how it turned out, and we want to thank Molly, the journalist, and Jason, the photojournalist and videographer, for doing such a great job. They were so wonderful to work with, very sensitive to Brenna's needs and made us feel so comfortable.
To read the article online, go here, and to see a video with clips from Brenna's bath, go here. (I wasn't thrilled about talking on video, but Jason did a great job editing my rambling :) )
For those who are checking out our blog from the SJ-R, check out my very first post here for more information about when Brenna was born. You can also read about my recount of her birth here.
We were slightly apprehensive about the whole experience going in (I'm used to being on the other side of the interviewing!), but we were very happy with the "finished product" and very excited about the chance to educate more people about Brenna's condition.
Let me just say that Brenna is one cute baby!
ReplyDeleteThe article was really good and so was the video. Loved hearing her little baby sounds as she had her bath. So cute. Her skin looks fabulous.
You guys are doing an incredible job taking care of her. She is a lucky little girl.
I didn't realize it was front page! I read it online yesterday and sent it to my mom, since she always asks me for updates on who Brenna is doing. Thought it was such a great article, and an awesome Father's Day tribute!
ReplyDeleteThe article on beautiful Brenna touched my heart. Brenna and the rest of your family will be in my daily prayers. God bless.
ReplyDeleteI wish you had been around when my kids were little to give me a bit of wisdom regarding letting Brenna cry if Connor needed you because he would remember being put off, but she wouldn't remember crying. Wish I had understood that when I had one in a body cast and a newborn while my poor middle child just had to 'deal'. I'll certainly share that pearl when I have grandchildren.
