June 27, 1993 I discovered I was Pregnant for the first time.  At 19 years of age this was a big step for me. Daniel and I had been Engaged, yet we had not expected to become pregnant this soon into our relationship.  We wanted to make the best for our Baby and have the Best for our new Family so we did what we could to begain a life of responsablities.  We settled down in a little place of our own, a small two bedroom cabin in our home town surrounded by those who loved us and cared about our new little family.  December 22, 1993 we went for a routine ultra sound.  Only this time we would be finding out the sex of our little seed.  Being only one day before my mom's birthday we thought we could surprise her with the sex of her first Grandbaby.  Things didn't go as smooth as they should of.  I lay alone in this little room waiting for someone to tell me something, I felt alone and scared as the Dr's and nurses came in to look at my Baby on the screen.  No one saying anything, no one telling me what was going on.  After hours of silence I was sent back to my Dr's office were he gave us the disturbing news, Our Baby had Anencephaly!  Our Baby would die!  At that moment life changed for us.  When others would be out shoping for baby cloths and searching for baby furniture we went out looking for a little bit of hope.  I had the Dr write that word Anencephaly on a piece of paper for me and up till I delivered my son I carried that paper in my hand clinched in a fist. Praying every day for God to Take this from us.  Praying for a miracle!  Together we choose to carry our child to term.  It was God's will as to when he would take our son from us to Heaven's pearly gates.
On February 16, 1994 at 10:57PM (42 weeks gestation) My Firt Born Son silently entered this world.  After 15 hours of Labor I was rushed to emergency C Section and I delivered our Son, Weighing 7Lbs, 14OZ and 21 Inches long.  Family and Friends gathered to love and hold Our Angel.  Daniel and I choose to give him the name we had intened on giving him from the begaining.  Together with our friends, family and Pastors we prayed, grieved, and blessed our Son into God's Home.  Together we said goodbye to the Boy we had all come to Love.
Daniel Ray Jones ll,
Our Baby Daniel
