Fundraiser for Little Peanut

Friends and Family - we have created this blog to bless the Nantois Family. They are going through a difficult time right now & we want to help them in any way possible. This is one of those ways : )
Please read the following letter from Erin & participate how your heart leads...
Hi! I really wish I could be there today to share my story with you in person, but I'm so thankful my friend has offered to share my story for me.
Like so many I am mom, the greatest joy of my life. I have two children a boy and a girl who bring me the most amazing happiness. My husband & I are also expecting a third little peanut in April. We are so excited to meet this precious baby whom we all ready so deeply love.
A few weeks ago at a routine appointment our Doctor noticed a problem with our baby. We went to another Doctor to confirm and it looks as if our babies heart may have a problem. Like all moms having a baby or child with a serious medical problem is our worst nightmare. I am so scared I can barely breath sometimes.
For now there is nothing anyone can do to tell us exactly what we will be dealing with or what the plan for our baby. I do know and pray daily that God's will be done. I know He love's our baby even more than we do and that brings me so much comfort.
After researching what little I do know about our babies heart problem and talking with my OB it seems very possible that our baby will need to be born in a hospital that specializes in babies with heart problems. Since I'm not really sure at this point the exact problem I'm not sure where we will go, but unfortunately we will probably have to leave our home for an unknown amount of time because of surgeries and recovery time.
There is so much that is unknown at this point. As a mom I can't really just sit around and wait. So during one of my sleepless nights of worry I decided that what I could do was two things...
1-Ask for prayers for my family - we know that there is a reason this is happening, we don't understand it, but there is a comfort in knowing God knows our plan.
2-I can try to help financially plan for what the future may hold. Unfortunately two days before we got the news about our baby I was laid off from my job.
Emotionally it has been a blessing. I don't really think I could have worked after having my world so completely rocked. Financially it will be difficult.
So that is when I decided to get out of bed and do something productive.
I am making these fun little Advent calendars as a way to financially be able to help my family be together after little peanut arrives.

There is really no telling how long our hospital stay may be with possible surgeries and recovery. I do know that I can't leave my other two children behind...so that means we all go to wherever we need to be go give our little peanut the best chance. We have received so many sweet offers from friends and family that would stay with our kids, but I know that through whatever the future holds I need to be able to kiss their sweet faces every single day. I can't survive this without them.
So that is my story today. As you all are reading this I am having tests run to find out more and I hope to be able to share more about little peanut soon.
Please, please, please pray for God's will for our family.
Also, please know that if for some reason our baby does not make it through the pregnancy or if he/she is healed before birth any and all profits from the calendars will go to a family that is going through the same situation.
Love - Erin
