Adorable babies! Who's the Chief whispering to?
And more wet, open-mouthed, sloppy kisses!
So Right! Those are cute little ones. The Chief is just yummy!
They are SO stinkin' cute!
Wendy from Flippin' Sweet
And more cute, well dressed and obviously in the know babies sharing the love (and perhaps gossip about last night's Sundance Film Festival opening?) :)
i agree...
love your new camera...
cannot wait for Nie. :-)
Those pictures are hilarious!!
Those are edible pictures for sure!
I can't believe today is January 16th. Is Nie nervous about her re-entry? You don't need to answer that, I'm sure she feels about a million feelings at once. Looking forward to hearing from her when and how she can!
Mind if I snack on those cheeks?

That is one INTENSE conversation!!
hey Courtney, those pictures are gorgeous, and you guys are a tease LOL! But loving every minute of waiting.....literaly on the edge of my seat LOL!
HA! I'm cracking up! He totally looks like he's whispering some juicy dirty into her ear and her face is pricless (along with being GORGEOUS...hellooooo!!! She looks like a porcelein doll)...Her face is like "no way, I'm in shock, are you serious?" I love this post...sooo cute!
C Jane, I am so excited for Nie's return! I stopped by the blog this morning and noticed the new header... LOVE IT! (it says Jan 2008 tho... not 2009)... Anyhow, LOVE the pics of the Chief! Yay for Nie's return!
OMG, I wrote "dirty"...I meant "dirt"...you need to turn on that blog moderation thingy on again, because now I just messed it up....sorry.
Coconut heads unite! And prepare to be devoured. How are they SO SO yummy? Little angels.
THANKS for sharing, cJane.
And by the way, tell Nie, I've had a stomachache all week, in anticipation to her return. I blog now because of her! I'm soooo excited she's back.
How totally ADORABLE! Fancy you catching that darling moment! You'll be able to treasure this one for years!
Those are 2 of the cutest babies I've seen in my life!!
I LOVE THOSE PICS - and you are too funny.
The Chief is a lady's man huh? I see he likes the red heads. SOOO BEAUTIFUL!!!!!
yay! happy, happy day. and delicious babies too, oh mercy!
LOVE these pictures. So fun.
oh my goodness, what completely adorable photos!
Have a good weekend,
Saskia x
Oh my! He is so cute Courtney! I could mug on him all day long! Where did the baby Chief go? He is so old now! Have a happy weekend! xoxox E Beesley
Amen sista!
Delicious!
Oh my gosh! I love the intensity on The Chief's face! It must have been a really good piece of gossip!
oooh that chief, so stinking cute. i love the sweater too.
ps i love the new banner on nie's blog but it says january 2008.
These are adorable. What precious little babies. What a great way to start my day! Thanks C Jane.
well said - two of the cutest babies ever I might add...
Ps. Do you mind sharing what kind of new camera you have?
Totally awesome pictures....I wonder what they are whispering.
Holy Crow! The Chief is so yummy...how do you not gobble him up?
Nie's blog looks a-mazing. Perfect, just perfect. Fits her to a T.
So cute! How do you manage to catch all these things on film? You are amazing!
They are just too stinkin' cute for words!
Congratulations on winning the blog contest--but then we know what a great job you've done.
That's fantastic!! Those babies are so perfect.
hahhahha!! the girl looks like she doesn't know what to do with that bit of gossip!
OMG! How cute are they?!?! :) :) :) I couldn't agree more!
Thanks for the smile for the day! They are adorable :)
OOOOOOOOOOOhhhhh! Just want to squeeze him (in a good way, you know)!
sweet babyness. you're all announcing nie, and it's making my anxiety bubble up...
I hate to be the bearer of typos, but Nie's header says January 2008 instead of January 2009. I'm assuming it should say 2009! Save Nie and the typos!
ADORABLE pictures!
absolutely adorable :)
Both are way cute...the little girl is absolutely ADORABLE!
I am such a dork... I gave you the lemonade stand award on my blog. I know it's silly, but it links over to your blog, and maybe you'll get some extra contributions for the Nie Nie recovery fund.
And congrats on your BIGGER award :)
Adorable!
So cute! Your little man is just too precious!
Oh my gosh, love it! I wanted to let you know that between you and your sister I am learning how to love being a mom and embracing all of lives moments! You are an inspiration.
I couldn't agree with you more!
Amen, sister! Precious, just precious!
Those are the cutest babies in the world. And they were sharing their predictions for the Golden Globes. (They were dead on. They've had their parents' theories buzzing around for a while, afterall)
Margaret was robbed...
Love the pictures, CJane.
And so excited anticipating hearing from your sister. It's so wonderful.
OH how delightful! All of it!
Love it!
Too yummy! How did you get that pictures like that?
I hope Nie isn't feeling too much pressure. If it's a bad day and she can't post- tell her we'll all understand.
If they could just stay babies longer.....
Because i cannot find a comment bar on 'newnie' i am leaving one here. WeLcOmE bAcK NiE. Love surrounds. It truly does!
I love you Courtney and I love you NewNie!!!! Happy days!!
Well said Courtney! I've checked Nie's blog a thousand times today, waiting for the update. And I just hate it that the link to your blog from her's is removed :-(
Love the pictures! The Chief is so stinkin' cute...and who doesn't love hot gossip?
And Hooray for Stephanie...I'm overjoyed that she is back! What a blessing!
I just read Nie's post and know you must be so proud of your sister, to have come so far so fast. I am so proud of you for everything you have done for her and her family. I hope you continue to feel strength and love from our prayers!
Thank you for your ever inspiring blog, Courtney. I so enjoyed reading Nie's today. You are both fantastic.
Well- she did it. Bravo and kudos to Nie. And to you Courtney- for so kindly sharing your blog. I'm pretty sure you'll get most of the comments on her post over here.
I hope everything doesn't crash.
Another kiss for the adorable babies in that picture. Yum!
Yay for Nie!
Adorable!
I just read Nei's post and am filled with emotions. They way you have all handled yourself with courage, grace, dignity, well it simply warms my soul. To have siblings who'd go to the end of the earth for each other, well it is almost like watching magic, a miracle of sorts. What's your mum's secret to raising children who care so much?
Nie's post brought such emotion and such joy. I am just so happy she is back. Personally I got out the pinata :0)
hurray! nie is back :) she is such a wonderful inspiration to everyone. May she heal and continue to feel our prayers.
Please tell her 'welcome back' and 'thank you'. It was worth 5 months of waiting...
So cute! I love these 'what the world needs' posts! What the world needs, is more people like you, your family and NIE! Thanks again for sharing your journey and raising us all up in the process.
p.s. I too checked Nie's blog a million times today. When it finally was up, I soaked it all in with a tear and a smile. She is a miracle in so many ways.
When I opened Nie's blog, (a million times today, patiently waiting a post) and finally saw a new pic, I didnt even GET past the picture, without tears....
WONDERFUL to see...
Bless you all!!
YAY, NIE IS BACK!! what an awesome day :D :D
What a glorious day indeed.
Aileen
Oh happy day! Nie is back. I'm so thankful!
You have been an amazing sister and spirit. I think we have all learned so much from you by the way you love and give. Please tell that sister of yours to turn on the "accept comments" so we can all flood her with love!
cool pictures and yay for nie! u both know how to make a person cry and laugh all in one post.
Amen!
Is he whispering about Nie? I read her blog but couldn't leave a comment so call her and tell her I AM SOOOO HAPPY she is posting again.
Courtney:
1. Congratulations on being named the official winner of the Weblog Awards. Autoblog and your mutual 'hat-tipping' post was courteous and amusing. Good on both of you!
2. What a cute picture; I didn't even recognize your baby til I read the comments.
3. I just have to comment here about New Nie's post b/c her comments aren't on (sorry!).: New Nie: You rock! What an attitude. We don't need to say how absolutely thrilled we are to have you back!! Much love to you, New Nie, and to you CJane, as always.
Maybe you mean "fewer" conspiracy theories?
Leslie
yay! She is back... it is good to see she still has her unique personality. Tell her to turn her comments on!!! You Clark girls are amazing.... thanks again for all the time you put into these updates.
Amen to that!
I am over here holding back tears of joy. Your sister really is back! She is a miracle and so good to see prayers answered. Please tell her that we have not stopped praying for her.
For some reason I cant view the pics. But I'll chenck this on my mom's computer. Hey it's so neat to have Nie back, and I know you feel the same way. Love ya courtney. Prayers still flying your way!!!!
Reaffirms my thoughts that The Chief is one of the cutest babies I've ever seen. :) I think I may have teared up a little just seeing that Nie had written...please tell her we're all so glad to have her back!
(Word verification: achog: the sound a photographer makes when they sneeze.)
What a blessed day it is today. Nie is back!
Welcome back (I really like to think you had have a chance to visit Heaven for a while but for bigger purposes you were send back to us.) Oh yes, our world still needs a sweet soul like yours... Lucky us!
Love is SURE in the air. I'm out to get myself and my kids some hot cocoa to celebrate you, Beautiful Nie!
how precious. you seriously have one of the cutest babies ever...next to my nephew (sorry, my opinion is a bit biased).
and it was so good to see nie posting again! i so love her humor and wonderful personality that has not been touched.
Because I cannot post on NewNie, please tell her that her hands are beautiful!!!!! Welcome, welcome, welcome back Nie!
Scrumptious babies... but what I really wanted to say is this:
I was so excited all week for this day to arrive. I don't think I've been so eager to get out of bed in a long time. (A 16 month and 3 month old have lessened my enthusiasm for mornings... I'm sure you understand.)
Nie's back! And it was worth the wait.
That photo is the most romantic image I've seen in a long time.
You and your sister have become part of my daily life. Friends, who just don't know me.
Thanks to you both, and all the prayers I can muster for continued healing, blogging and inspired living.
Ok, I didn't realize till right now how much the Chief and Margaret look like each other... do you have hidden Valentine genes somewhere??? They are the cutest!
Please tell Nie that my heart did a flip-flop and my eyes teared up when I saw her name light up on my reader this morning. I've been waiting all week!
Love to you both.
Awesome pictures! Great post! Thanks for sharing!
Disclaimer: This comment is going to be like..."And the Grammy Goes To..."
Cjane, Awesome art...so, Andy Warholish of you... I LOVE it. I have been lurking for almost a year & I've never commented. But today... well, I just have to say:
1. I know sisterhood, I am a big sister of a fabulous girl, and I am bearing in my heart your example for the rest of my life!
2. The wings are hot!!
3. Staying "Spicy" in all things, motherhood, work, ministry... is going to be my life's work. Thanks for the inpiration!
4. Sometimes I let fear take over, especially when it comes to seeking the approval of others. Well, if you and Nie have taught me anything over this past year...it is I HAVE NOTHING TO FEAR! If you can take down Autoblog and weather the wrath of the internet world and Nie can survive a plane crash & a burned body and can re-emerge embracing her new identity... well, holy cow, I can have courage too!!
Cjane - you have, single handedly changed my perspective on life, love & the grace we have pouring down on us from heaven.
Thank you, thank you, thank you...
Just came to say hello. Beautiful baby girl. And as alway's The Chief is darling as usual. Swung by your sisters this morning and it is a great day, isn't it!!!!
If you look at those pictures, you can clearly see that The Chief is doing the gossiping, and Margaret is not. I'm not passing judgement on your parenting, but CLEARLY my kids do not pass gossip on.
hooray for your brave sister! a big welcome back to her. and all her sweetness.
Wow! So happy you won! What an accomplishment!
Your kiddo is so cute, almost as cute as mine! (hahaha!) The pictures are precious!
And, to Nie...We love you! This is my first comment to cjane, and it is the one I was waiting to make. You have inspired me in more ways than I can say. I am so happy you are back! Thank you so much for your daily musings, inspirations, and exhibits of everlasting love. Welcome!!!!
Precious pictures of your little man! So glad your sister is back. I know so many are praising God she is well enough to return. God is awesome. I love the photo of their hands.
I would love to know how many hits Nie gets on her blog today. Thousands, I'm sure.
so cute - love baby gossip!
Adorable. What a lucky momma you are!
Cute pictures. Love the effect you used.
Squeezable!
how darling...i know this is your blog and not nie's but is she going to allow comments. I am dying to leave her one. She is so amazing and so brave and such a fighter. I admire her, I do!
Beautiful pictures.
And hooray for Nie! I'm so glad you're both still blogging - thank you!
So glad Nie is back! The Hello Dolly song seems very appropriate only it should be "Well, Hello Nie Nie, yes hello Nie Nie. It's so nice to have you back where you belong..."
I am sure your family can relate quite well to that!
ador.a.ble. and yeah for Nie!
So true....thanks.
& a warm welcome back to Nie. Thanks to finding you...I have also found her.
With Love....
Aren't we pleased when we capture those moments in time?
So thrilled that Stephanie graced the blogosphere once again. We have been witness to a modern-day miracle.
is that Margaret? such cute babies. gossiping already
Adorable. The original pictures captured the expressions best, I thought, although the photoshopped versions are charming as well!
Ohhhhhhhhh!! That is soo cute!!
I am so excited NIE is coming back!
I wonder if this is The Chief's first foray into the pageant coaching business?
what cutie pies. also what a wonderful post from Stephanie. It is great to see her typing and hearing from her.
Connie-AZ
Technically, this is off topic, but since there are so many ladies visiting here today, I pose a question...
Does anyone know where one might find knee-length(ish) a-line(ish) skirts such as the type cjane wears?
Nowhere can I find a skirt that covers everything and does not restrict me and make me walk like a penguin.
Any advice would be much appreciated!
Thank you cjane supporters and yay for nie!
PS. I'm in Denver, CO if that helps at all.
Don't you just love how babies are in-love with other babies. Too cute for words!po
I am in love with the Chief! Maybe he will grow up and marry my 5 month old someday.
NewNie - that is beautiful, you are beautiful and your blog is beautiful. Thanks for sharing this story!
so cute. Love it!
I've been reading your blog since just after Nie's accident. What a journey it has been. Thank you for sharing your life and feelings with the world. I don't know you personally but I just love you! What I special and miraculous day today is! How far Nie's come and will go . . .
Love and joy to you,
Rebecca
p.s. Your new blog banner is my favorite I've ever seen on any blog - and it just wouldn't be the same without the wings!
please send nie a big thank you from me and many others! she has shown such grace, strength, faith and resisilence during this incredible journey.
and thank you courtney for all the updates, effort and time you have put into your blog.
So cute! And so glad your sister is well enough to be back to blogging.
cute pics
nice effects
adorable conversation
nie's post--I'm without words, but tears run freely. That's how time is marked with a burn "BC - AC"
I spent a couple of years rubbing vitamin e oil into my daughters grafts and doing physical therapy with her 3 times a day. I saved every pair of her "Jobst" gloves.
Prayers for nie and mr.
Very cute.
Congrats again on your Blog win.
~ Welcome back Stephanie ~
So my second post of the day, NewNie with the fabulous photo, we are blessed to share their journey of hope and love. And thank you for bringing it to us!
Since I can't express my pure joy and delight on Nie's blog, I had to come here to do it- NIE IS BACK!
More baby gossip, more Nie- yes please!
Those pics are awesome. Your niece and the Chief are too cute. I'm so happy to read Stephanie's first AC blog - her comments are closed so maybe you could just be sure to let her know how happy we all are that she is back!
got up at 5:30 instead of usual 8ish to check on nie...glad to have her back. the chief is your son! (from what i have learned on your blog)
I just read your sisters post through lots of tears. I was not a "follower" before on her blog but I will be now. Your whole family is truly AMAZING!!!
Question: How is Nie pronounced? Does it rhyme with "Why" or "We"? I asked this already today but I don't think my post came through.
Thanks! However you pronounce it I am glad she's back.
I couldn't agree more! Those pictures are to die for. That little chiefy of yours is such a handsome boy.
I just read Nie's post, I have tears of joy streaming down my face! The blog world is so lucky to have her back, and I wanted to thank you again for telling us her story so that she can now continue it herself.
Three cheers for {saint} Cjane!
Hooray!
Hooray!
Hooray!
Tell Stephanie that I said WELCOME HOME!
Congratulations on the blog award win! I voted!
Love the photo, the kids are so cute and the photo composition clever.
I love that Stephanie is back!!! I missed her so much and am so thankful that prayers were answered. I ache for all that she and Christian have gone through and pray often for all of the family, but especially for Steph as she continues to recuperate.
Adorable and I just love the cartoon version of the pix
He's telling her how to get the tall people to give them little people their yummys.
Have a great weekend.
Me again! Congratulations on your win! I read their concession and it was lovely, they were gentleman, and women if there were ladies there too! You rock COURTNEY, now go get sundaes for everyone! YUM!!!!!!! Thank you for everything!
Also, I have a feeling she must be reading this so Stephanie....hmmmmmmm "amazing" is all I can say. "Amazing". I am looking forward to each new post.
Can I tell you how handsome your son is? Well, he is. Absolutely the handsomest (that is, until one day I may conceive and have a boy)
Babies make the world a better place!
And yes, the world definitely needs NieNie! I cannot tell you how pleased I am to see her posting again. Much love to you all!
Here's to a new Nie and to you, our dear cjane! We love you guys (even if we really don't know ya ;)
haha at first glance I thought The Chief was your brother (toper?)!
TOO PRECIOUS!!!
The babaies are fabulous! I'm am so happy to see a post from Nie. Bless her a milliomn times.
Very artistic pictures. I thought looks like he's trying to eat her!. ;)
Love the newnie. What more is there to say? Heavenly Father hears and answers prayers!!
Congratulations on the award! And what a miracle to have Nie back blogging - the picture of S&C's hands is so beautiful. Your little son is such a blessing. I'm so glad you have him!
Amen Sista!
Here here!
Tears.
I'm so thankful to have Nie back. Thanks for linking her before my reader had picked her up.
love the pics !! i so agree and welcome back nie!!
Comments on the commentators:
To Questioning: Nie is pronounced like knee (NieNie is a play on her name: StephaNIE NIElson)
To Topher: You made me laugh! Courtney's son as gossiper? Nah. It could be he is responding to his cousin's comments that weren't captured on film! LOL
I wanna be a Clark!
word verification: fogiese (as in Old fogies? I'm sure I should be offended somehow).
And finally, WELCOME BACK NIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (and I meant every one of those !)
PS. Courtney- YOU ROCK!
Is that the Chief with cousin Margaret? So cute. Topher's daughter doesn't appear to be shunning the gossip either, she IS listening intently... in my view anyway.
I love the fact that I have two people to read regularly now. Tell Nie 'Welcome back'!!!!
Dear Courtney,
We should get your scrumptious son to date my delicious daughter when they are 16...or 20...or whenever we are ready!
So cute! So true.
-FringeGirl
I am with "april kennedy" wet sloppying kisses! I got into a serious habit of gnawing on my baby girl this time around. Babies are just yummy yummy!
FYI I could only laugh when she took a chunk out of me one day. (she didn't understand gentle LOL)
hang my head in shame!
Nie is beautiful. she made me cry. of course. 6mths unbelievable!
Absolutely true! Yay for Nie!
What sweet babies! Since your sis doesn't have the comments open on her blog yet, tell her last night the SLFD called & asked for a donation... I was about to say no thanks, but then they said it was for the U of U burn center... thought of Nie, changed my mind... they'll be getting a few of the few dollars we have to our names!
You always have the answers.
I never would have thought that what the world really needs is more babies sharing hot gossip.
YOU are a genius my friend.
I'm going to go and think of more things the world needs.
Maybe together, we can fix the economy.
What the world needs is...is...cats...and dogs...that get along.
Okay, not as good as yours, but I just started.
You just wait.
There's more.
I'm starting to feel like your Ed McMahon.
Maybe we could work up some deal.
I come and comment, introduce you or whatever, and you pay me.
Now THAT'S genius.
What the world needs now is cjane with a sidekick.
One with glasses and five kids.
Sorry, I can't help it.
Coming here and commenting is a compulsion.
The rambling, that just comes naturally.
it's so lovely and gorgeous to have the TWO sisters back in blogging business. love the new look--totally cracking me up. and it's going to be a great year with nienie back.
thank you!
SSOOOOOOOO cute
Adorable! And give a welcome-back hug to Nie for us all!
Tell Nie welcome back!
I'm pretty sure The Chief is simply passing on the message to his cousin that their AUNT NIE is back on!
Most important news to be shared.
Hi CJane,
I am so happy Nie is back to posting! I am doing a small fundraising effort for my vastly-smaller-than-your readership in Northern California at my website:
http://heusen.blogspot.com
LOVE the pics of your cute baby! Welcome back to Nie. What a beautiful post. Tell her thanks.
Courtney,
I started to follow your blog and Nie's blog when I heard about it on NBC. I have been mesmarised ever since. It is remarkable to see the support and encouragement that you have gotten. It is heart-warming to see the outpouring of love that you have gotten and that Nie has gotten through the tragedy that you all have trudged through. I am inspired, and I want to offer my support to other parents of children with disabilities. I just don't know how to do it.
I am new to this whole "blog" world. I have started to write about my experiences as a mom to a child with a disability, and I have no idea of how to reach other parents of children with disabilities. I want to share my story and to support other parents who may have support issues...any suggestions?
I bet little Cheif has a lot to say and he sure is whispering it to a pretty girl. Adorable! I bet you guys are so proud of Stephanie. I lost my leg first below the knee and then above 5 years ago. I also have a rare muscle condition so I am in a wheelchair. I thank God my children were grown. I went from being a working wife and mom to sitting in a wheelchair. Life can will change at a moments notice. I think I came out a better person for it. I was such a vain person. Anyway I know Newnie will find a way to embrace the new her and bloom where she is planted. You are such a sweet sister. God Bless, Patty
of course you know about this?
http://www.azcentral.com/style/fashion/articles/2009/01/16/20090116nieblog.html
duh - right?
you and Jaimee Rose are like *this* right?
Courtney, amazing Courtney. BC I did not know you. Now I love you. Being a 'loner' kind of person this is a great relationship for me. I can just participate in your life, antics and heartfelt tender moments...AND...I never have to clean my house 'cause you're coming to visit (and YOU don't have to clean yours...good, eh?) You have been a loving and skilled blogger juggling all the emotions, chatter and events of the last five months. I thank you for showing us your world and for embracing us in it. Classy lady, without a doubt!
Stephanie. OMG. I have been such a voyeur in your life for the last five months that I am embarassed to 'meet' you. I have prayed for you so intently--my heart gushing an emotion I cannot even name...never felt it before. We've been allowed to peak at you through sanctioned peepholes while you were so vulnerable. Glimpses of love, strength and miracles. We talked to God like never before. We became obsessed...(well, okay, maybe it was just ME who was obsessed)...with your recovery and well being. And now here you are, back amongst the bloggers. My stomach is all jittery just thinking about the fact that your own words are back on the pages of NieNie. Whoa! and just so ya know,the last few months your words were so well taken care of by Courtney. And I know that your other siblings (who shun the spotlight) have contributed mightily to your recovery. I love every one of you. Welcome back, Miss Stephanie.
Courtney, here is my soap box (sliding out of the way).
You may now have your blog back. :)
I am thrilled to have Nie back and blogging, but am sad to not be able to comment on any of her posts!
Perfectly put Shirley. I feel exactly the same way. My stomach lurched when I saw her new post this morning. Nie has change my life. I now wear red, I now pray everyday without fail, I saviour every moment cooking, cleaning & washing-welllll most of the time & I am loving my husband & I am not embarassed to say he is pretty hot too.
Caio Bella's.
Lots of love, Niki
I am so pleased with Stephanie's progress. I have followed it for months. Faith is such a vital element in recovery. You are such and inspiration.
I wrote before about trying to reach parents of kids with disabilities. If you want to contact me, you can reach me at jcprankin@grandecom.net.
Thank you for being such an inspiration to us. We will continue to pray for you and for Nie.
Julie
Can't help but comment again... I am just SOOOO THANKFUL for you and Nie, Courtney! And so very HAPPY that you are back with us, Nie! Shirley said it so very well. Welcome back, dear Nie. You and Courtney are gonna continue to ROCK the blog world! Love and hugs, Lori
Adorable babies! AWWW!
And it touches my heart to see Nie blogging again. We've missed her so much!
So true C Jane!!
Shirley said it best, but I just want to add that I cried such wonderful happy tears while reading Nie Nie's new post today. Welcome back my dear, we love you so!
Does The Chief "kiss" you by licking your whole face? My 9 month old has 6 teeth - yes, I said 6 - and his sweet open mouthed kisses are now bites - but love bites - oh so sweet.
Second. I am overjoyed at Nie's return. I want nothing but to comment on her blog - alas - it is not to be done - but I wanted to express my joy. If I feel this joy, what YOU and YOUR FAMILY must feel.... PRAISE THE LORD!
Priceless... Your baby is soooo cute!!! Sooo good to see Nie's post today, brought tears to my eyes...she is AMAZING!!! We launched our balloons...18 of them with all of our kids. They loved it! We will send pictures...Thank you for your awesomeness...
Prayers and hugs from CA
C-love,
Thank you for being yourself, for being such a great sister, for this blog, for making me laugh, for just being!!!
I bow my head in your presence Stephanie. There are no words. I was anticipating your return all week and I am just overcome with emotion reading your thoughts, your update.
I can only leave you this poem by Virgina Ellis-
How does one measure a miracle?
What kind of gauge does one use?
Should miracles be stupendous and grand,
Breathtaking, enormous, and huge?
Must the colors be vivid and shockingly bright?
What volume of sound should one hear?
Are miracles crafted of pure solid gold,
Or fashioned of jewels so dear?
How will I know if I've seen one?
Will there be angels flying around?
Will the sun be brilliantly shining?
Will I see stars and a moon beaming down?
Where do I look for my miracle?
How will I know one is near?
Then the simple answer came to me,
Dear child, just look in a mirror.
But even that does not seem enough to describe what it feels like... to read your words. I just know I am witness to a miracle. Thank you for coming back!
I will forever pray for you, for Mr. Nielson, C-love and everyone involved in your life. You and Courtney are truly amazing beings.
In faith,
Djuna
Absolutely! Love this.
I had to comment here C-Jane. Oh I'm so happy, beyond happy, over joyed in fact, that Nie is back. Oh how I've missed her.
i have only been following a few blogs for a few months, but what a few months it has been. this is actually my first comment ever. and i kind of saved it on purpose. so a huge welcome back to your sister. what an inspiration. and to you, for all you have done with such wit and spice... may God bless you all from this day forward.
Courtney,
I don't expect (or necessarily want you to) post this comment... I just couldn't figure out how to email you. I have been reading about your family for a long time now and never responded before. I know that your blog has a lot of "power" and was wondering if you would be able to make a post about this: http://blog.imperfectparent.com/2009/01/11/amazon-feeding-our-children-to-the-lions/
It seems that Amazon is selling pro-pedophilia literature. I am appalled and horribly stunned. There is a petition to try and get Amazon to stop selling these books. I know that you probably don't want to get preachy in your blog but I also know how much you love your son (and all children in general). I have signed the petition and have sent emails out to all of my loved ones as well. I just just hoping that maybe you could say a little something about this in one of your blogs and help it get the attention that it needs.
Hope all is well and look forward to some spicy posts:)
Thanks,
Michele Ondra
Sorry if this plea bothers you. I am not trying to annoy you or get you upset about anything. I am just hoping to put a stop to Amazon (whom I actually used to buy a lot from) selling these types of books. Money for the company shouldn't be worth selling such items. ya know??
I think CJane & NieNie might like this...

Thinking of you both and loving your blogs more then ever!!
You captured the cutest of moments! My friends and I are soooo excited that NieNie is back! THANK YOU, THANK YOU for keeping us updated in the mean time! You and Nie are such an inspiration, and I will continue to be a loyal reader of both your blogs.
I know you don't know me, but I feel as if I know you. You are the first blog I read every day. I gave you an award on my blog. (not quite as interesting as yours, by a mile). Just wanted to thank you for taking the time to share who you are what you value.

Dear CJane,
Please pass this message along to NieNie, since her blog doesn’t allow comments yet! My name is Susan Rajotte and I live in MA. I became aware of your story from a co-worker and visited your blog, and I was amazed and thankful that the Lord has given you so many blessing even at this trying time in your life, as you have said, this is the AC (after crash) time of your life.
I am an RN and I am blessed to work for a company in Newton Center, Massachusetts called NormaTec. We make a pneumatic compression device that I feel will help both you and Mr. Nielson not only recover faster, but aid in the healing process. Please contact me. I really want to help.
