who we claim to be
- Andy and Cari
- Hey all,If you do not know us, the first thing you should know is how much we love the Lord our God, and we are striving to live lives worthy of the title, Believer. The second is we are praying everyday for His return. On that day we will be reunited with our precious baby girl Caden, the treasure of our hearts. Since the death of our daughter we have battled grief, hurt, tears in public, brain surgery and chemo. We have also celebrated new life in the birth of our 2 sons. So come, read, share and enjoy the life God has given us. Although it is not perfect, or even what we had planned it is what He wants for us, so we choose to rejoice.
start here!!!
The Captain and Cari
Our Joy, Caden Joelle.
"Michael said Caden's funeral felt like a wedding. I smile to type that, because in many ways, it was: a celebration of one little bride being united with the Lamb."

things that make me laugh
I came back into the room from treating myself to a nice, cold diet coke when I saw the Captain playing with Rigg. He was making the stuffed animal dance in the air toward our son and saying in a sing-song voice “Here comes the zebra.” I looked at him and said in the exact same sing-song voice “It’s a giraffe.” To which the Captain, with only the briefest pauses, sing-songed back the reply… “Daddy had brain surgery.“
I stalk much...

He is such a big boy! Those open mouth sugars are the best, right? =)
Cari, I have been following your blog for awhile. It is fun to see you, Andy and Rigg enjoying life to the fullest! I pray for you often during my runs (A Katherine idea!) that God will continue to heal your hearts and fill you with His Joy.

Oh he is so adorable and he looks like an 18 month old.
Hi Cari and Andy. I've been poking around here for some time, but I just wanted to tell you that I've really appreciated reading your story. Great pictures of your sweet one!
BTW...I had Andy's sister in my cabin at camp way back in the olden days. And my husband and I are friends with his parents (although it's been a LONG time since we've seen each other!)
God bless you guys!
I'm not sure how I even found your blog, but I have been drawn to it since the beginning. I have an 11 month old son named Caden (can you believe it?!?) and reading your story of loss and joy has touched me to the core. I have often wanted to post a comment letting you know how much you, your family, and your story has meant to me, but I was always too nervous, shy, I'm not really sure why. But today is different. Today I read your post about Easter and my mouth dropped open. Literally. Your Rigg and my Caden wore the exact same sweater vest to church Easter morning! Blessings on your sweet family!
