Friends

Please keep my friends, Preston and Janelle Hite, in your prayers. They moved to China this summer for Preston to teach music and found out that they were expecting triplets. Janelle and their young son, Logan, came back to the states a few weeks ago so she could go on bed rest. Unexpectedly, Janelle went into labor on Friday night at 24 weeks and 4 days. Preston came home immediately but did not make it in time for the births of their babies.

Nathan - 1 lb. 9 oz; Owen - 1 lb. 6 oz; Amelia Marie - 1 lb. 6 oz.

Nathan and Owen are hanging in there but sadly Amelia Marie was just not strong enough to stay with her family. She is a sweet angel now and I know that Janelle and Preston's hearts must be broken.

Because of our experience this past year, my heart aches in a way I've never known each time I hear of someone who is going through the aftermath of loosing a child. Truthfully, I haven't seen Preston or Janelle in many years but I've followed their journeys via their blog recently and I know that they will need many many many prayers in the coming months.

Thank you all.

Love you,
Johnna
