My friend Noah's daughter died this morning. Magdalena wasn't yet a year old. She had trisomy 18 (an extra chromosome) and was not expected to live through birth at all. But God decided that we could use a little more beauty and love down here, so she stayed on earth for a while. In just a few months, she touched more hearts and felt more love than some people do in 32 years. It was a short stay, but it was a good one. Now she can rest, and her spirit isn't confined to a body that was far too small to contain it.
Here is her blog: http://noahandjulieroberts.blogspot.com/
Her parents, Noah and Julie, are great people, with incredible faith in God's love, and they are undoubtedly better prepared to handle this than most people. Certainly better prepared than I was when Talitha died. But please pray for them anyway, because every little bit helps.

I was so sad to hear this - I have been following their story since you directed me to their blog a few months ago.
My thoughts are with them.
This is such sad, sad news. I am sending good karma their way.....
I read some of their blog and I cannot imagine and cannot stop crying. I will be in prayer.
