Today, July 12th, 2010--our baby Reagan Warren went to be with Jesus. Some of you knew that we were expecting, and to others this is a total surprise.
I started to bleed significantly this morning and had an ultrasound this afternoon and found out that we miscarried. It has been an a trying day for us, to say the least--but God has been so faithful and full of grace! The healing process has already begun and both Josh and I know that little Reagan is with God and one day, we will get to meet him/her.
Physically, I'm okay. There's no complications and even the cramping is not bad. Emotionally, I think this will be a long journey. I know in my head that Reagan is in a better place and that he/she will never have to know suffering and pain-but I sure do miss him. Our hearts hurt and I'm not sure quite how to deal with that. There's been lots of tears already and I'm sure there will be more to come. The most important thing is that God be glorified in this, even though it is so painful and that we trust Him to know and do what is right and good. And He is good!
I think it will be hard to talk about the baby for awhile, but don't feel bad to talk to me about it--please. I won't say that I would love to talk about it, but I'm not against it. I don't know if that makes sense.
Anyways, thank you for all your prayers--those of you who have been with us along the way, and thank you to those of you that will be praying for us.

My tears are mingled with yours, as I already loved this little life so much. There is an army of people lifting you all up in prayer, and I hope you can feel that support. What a joy to know that Reagan is in God's presence right now. We all love you.
I'm so sorry to hear about the loss of your sweet little Reagan. Many hugs and prayers to you my dear!
Shinae, we are so, so sorry to hear about your loss! Sending lots of love your way and praying this brings you closer to God and Josh, as horrible as it is. Our thoughts are with you hun!
