At 31 weeks, we received the heartbreaking news that our baby girl, Mya, had a life-limiting diagnosis and would likely pass moments after birth. On February 14, 2025, our sweet girl arrived (our Valentines baby♥) and gave us five beautiful days with her before she passed on February 19.

In those five days, we showered her with love. We held her close, read to her, and soaked in every perfect detail: her cute button nose, her sweet coos, her strong little grip, her ticklish toes. She was so beautiful and so strong, and we are so honored to be her parents. Mya Marie made us parents. We are forever thankful for the days we spent with her, and we hold on to the hope that we will be reunited someday. Until then, we will live each day honoring her and loving her!

We are so incredibly thankful for the support and kindness of the Sophia Ann Charity. They brought a bit of light to a tragic and very difficult time in our lives, and for that, we cannot express our gratitude enough. We hope that every family that experiences the loss of their baby receives the same love and support that the Sophia Ann Charity has provided to our family.
