Steele, today you are 5 days old and your Daddy and I are still amazed that God chose us to be your parents. You were born a month early so you had to stay in the special care unit for a couple of days hooked up to so many monitors. Your little hands and feet are still bruised from where they had to run so many tests and from the IV. These have been the hardest days of my life but I now truly understand a mother's love. We know God has great plans for you and though this road has been hard we know God is faithful. We love you Steele Sandro Mendoza and are so thankful for you.
