The twin peaks are quite a sight!….very beautiful….even when you aren’t able to see them due to the clouds, they will be there…solid like your faith…waiting to reveal themselves to you in the future, just like Mary Elizabeth and Mary Ellen.
Keep on practicing Bo…that is another beautiful part of the story. Stacy, I know I can’t relate to what you’re going through as I’ve never been pregnant and never laid in bed much. I suggest you just ask Bo-poo to give you a nice back massage every couple of hours…you’ll not get this much attention from him until you’re both old and gray, so take advantage of this time now!
Don’t let Michael and Nicky join that choir out there! And keep Megan away from the choirboys too!

Stacy and Bo, I have not stopped thinking about you and your babies since I talk to Bo last week. I am praying for all of you. I know your visit with the kids was very uplifting for you. I wish there was something I could do for you and if you think of anything, you know who to call. I love you guys. If you need some girl time, call me and I will be on the first plane out there!.Love Kerry, Mike, Jarred And Zack

Bo and Stacy,
Our hearts go out to you during this difficult time. Please know that our family has been praying for you daily. Our women’s CRHP team 5 met tonight and we all prayed for you. At our meeting, each of us brought a favorite bible verse to share. The one I shared was Romans 8:28 “And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.” Please take comfort in the fact that all of this is working for your good, even though I know it must be sooo difficult to go through, and I’m sure it doesn’t feel like it at all.
Sharing your journey and your faith through all of this is such a beautiful inspiration to us all. Thank you so much for sharing.
Love and Prayers,
Neil, Carol Lynn, Ali, Matt and Zac

The Govea Family – Please know you are in our prayers here in Lee’s Summit, MO and I forwarded this info. to the church family so lots of prayers are happening for your family. Mary Elizabeth and Mary Ellen – what beautiful names and creatures of God. WE do know that God is taking care of them and all we can do is pray and give it to Him and the doctors to help them get through this.
Our heart goes out to you and more importantly, God will be hearing our prayers!

Bo, Stacy, and Family,
We have been prayerfully watching from a distance. We are the family that Megan traveled with to Florida with Andrea. What a miracle…. my entire career has been spent in NICU, I have witnessed the power of prayer for these babies many times. What a testament to the sanctity of life and how their little spirits are truly made by God. You have all been so inspirational, we wish many more miracles along this journey. Please know you will continue in our prayers……..
Love,

Bo, Stacy and Family,
My name is Linda White and my husband Pat was on CHRP 4. I just recently experienced CHRP in March and am now on the CHRP 9 team. We have both been praying for your Marys. When I heard about Mary Elizabeth the morning of April 29th I started also praying to my mother in heaven whose name is Mary Elizabeth. I figured she had the inside scoop where she could go directly to our Lord. I was so gratified when I got the news yesterday about the turn of events for Mary Elizabeth and Mary Ellen and I know along with all the other prayers from everyone, as well as my mother, that a true miracle occurred. Praise God! Much love from Pat & Linda White

WOW! The class has been praying and watching for an update and we share in your glory at the miracles happening daily. We missed Megan for confirmation but know that she and your familiy is being guided and hugged by the Holy Spirit. Be safe, be strong, and continue to feel the power of our prayers.

Hey Bo,
The girls are beatuiful!
I remember our discussions at TMIY and know that God chose the right man and family to bring Mary Elizabeth and Mary Ellen to our world.
I have asked St. Michael the Archangel to watch over you. Every Monday at 5:00 am I will be in the adoration chapel and I will have you and your family with me before the Blessed Sacrament.
When you get back in town I hope to see you at All Pro Dads, because you are just that.

Dear Govea Family,
I just read the amazing article in the KC Star and learned about your journey. Tracy Kerth and I were former teachers of Megan… I just want you to know how fondly I remember your precious family and that you are in my daily prayers for strength. Your baby girls are absolutely beautiful and such an inspiration to everyone. May God continue to richly bless Mary Elizabeth and Mary Ellen with health and strength. Hugs to you all!

Bo & Stacy.
A friend forwarded me your website as encouragment and I just wanted to praise God with you for your miracle babies!
This week marks 19 weeks pregnant for us with identical girls. We’ve had a slowly progressing growth discrepancy right from the start. At this point no signs of TTTS but one is in the 3% for growth and the other is in the 90% (35% discrepancy). I am on partial bedrest at home trying to manage and care for our 3 children (ages 10,8,3). We live in Gainesville, FL and have travelled to Tampa to consider the laser surgery research study for SIUGR but have elected against it.
I feel so deeply for you and your twins. Our community of believers has surrounded us as well and we firmly believe it is His hand that is keeping our littlest’s heart beating. Our doctor has given us the goal of a 27/28 week delivery with a 1 lb. baby.
Not sure there is anything we can offer you but our sincerest thanks for sharing your story publicly so we could be blessed and encouraged in our own journey. We have added your Mary’s and your entire family to our prayers as this is how we spend a great deal of our days.
Thanks again for the blessing of sharing your story,
Joshua & Michelle
