Today is Cohen's 1-week birthday!!! Cort colored him a birthday picture and we gave him a picture frame with our picture in it. He has already checked it out. As far as health goes, he stayed on the room air supply for about an hour and then the nose tube came out and his stats didn't drop, so we left it off. The nurses have also tried letting him sleep on his stomach on a special pillow that lets his shoulders and hips drop down, which give his lungs more space to work somehow. It did seem to help, but he was upset when he woke up and couldn't see anyone! Her are some pictures for the day.
Happy 1-week birthday Cohen!!! Chris and Emily...thanks so much for giving us pics and so many details about Cohen! I love you all so much and am praying so hard.
What an amazing impact you all have! We are reading about your life and faith and the faith of others everyday. To God be the glory - great things He has done! Love - the Mozingos Beautiful baby boy!
You don't know me... I have stumbled across your blog and want to tell you that you are an amazing family- showing faith in God- knowing that all things are in His hands. I am amazed at your story and want you to know that our family is praying for all of you!
My heart skipped a beat when I saw you looking at the picture of your family, you one week old miracle man! Praising your Creator the mercy He has shown and the wonder He is filling my heart with as I gaze upon you, little one.
Wow! One whole week! What a week of blessings, miracles, astonishment, wonder, joy and praise it has been for all of you and everyone surrounding your family! We are praying for many more great weeks to come filled with many of the same things. Love, The Lees (Jason, Emily and Harrison)
Happy one-week birthday Cohen! Here's to many, many more! We are checking in on you at least three times a day, and are so delighted to hear how well you are doing. What a super star you are! With lots of love from all of us in Cardiff, UK. XXX
I have a feeling that this little 1 week old has impacted more lives than most people have in 20 years. I can't wait to start sharing stories with you guys! From high school friends to co-workers, Ed and I have seen God moving greatly and proving Himself to people in our lives. Happy Birthday Cohen!
We love Cohen! We have been celebrating his arrival and continue to celebrate every praise report! We can't wait to see what the Lord has in store for him...his days will be great! Your family at CrossRoads is rallying with you and praying for you! We rejoice at the goodness of the Lord! Ben and Milly
I stumbled upon your blog a couple days ago. Just wanted you to both know that I have been praying for your family, and specifically Cohen. I have two little girls and had lost a little baby boy at 19 weeks pregnant last November. I understand the humble feeling from the outpouring of support, but also how wonderful and AMAZING God is through trials. You are a beautiful family, and your son is beautiful also. Prayers are with you.
Beautiful little boy! Praise the Lord for seven days! I look forward to praising Him for many more! Thanks so much for being faithful to share with us so we can continue to pray how you need it!
Still praying for you guys! What a miracle and he is beautiful. As I am nearing the end of my pregnancy I am feeling nervous... Maybe I will pass you in the halls of the GHS if he comes as early as Andrea! I had to leave Andrea at the NICU, and believe me, I cried several nights- not because I was sad, I just felt so detatched and that I wasn't good enough to be able to take care of her on my own. Weird feeling, I know you both are hanging in there. It's ok to cry, God gives you more strength than you ever thought possible in these situations. Amazing, huh? Jill- from Clemson!
Happy One week Cohen!!! This has been the most AMAZING experience to behold. You are truly a miraculous blessing of God and it will never be forgotten by all the thousands of souls that you and your family have brought closer to our Lord. Chris & Em, thank you so much for continuing to update us all! I wish you could witness all the commotion that goes on in our office after every update! Just know that you all have a tremendous cheering section over here at GE and we will contnue to be here for all your needs, especially prayer! The Jarvis'

I hope you guys get some restful sleep and lots of snuggle time with Cohen while Cort is enjoying time with the grandparents! We love you guys Reeves and Rebecca Cannon
Welcome to our blog, take a look around. What you see is just a typical family trying our best to enjoy all the blessings God has given us in the midst of everyday life! Two of our favorite little blessings will fill most of the posts of this blog, our 4 year old first born, Cort, and our almost 2 year old, 2nd born, Cohen. Cohen was diagnosed with a fatal form of dwarfism at our 20 week ultrasound and we were told he had no chance of living more than a few minutes to hours at birth. He is a true miracle, a daily reminder of God's power and glory. Pull up a chair, enjoy the ride...we are!!
