We created this blog to tell the world about our beloved daughter Vitoria, who with acrania and anencephaly, lived with us for wonderful 9 months of pregnancy and exciting 2 ½ years of life outside the womb. May everyone know about her sweetness and tenderness. About her life, humanity and dignity. All the precious lessons learned with this little angel that God has sent us. It was a joy to have her with us. Vitoria still lives in our hearts and it will always be an honor to be her parents!
“But I am like an olive tree flourishing in the house of God; I trust in God's unfailing love for ever and ever”. Psalm 52:8

One year of Vitoria!
I will give you praise, O Lord my God, with all my heart; I will give glory to your name for ever. For your mercy to me is great; you have taken my soul up from the deep places of the underworld.
Psalm 86:12-13
Psalm 68:20
Our God is for us a God of salvation; his are the ways out of death.
You are the Lord, even you only; you have made heaven, the heaven of heavens with all their armies, the earth and all things in it, the seas and everything in them; and you keep them from destruction: and the armies of heaven are your worshippers.
Neemiah 9:6 Lord my God, I sent up my cry to you, and you have made me well.
O Lord, you have made my soul come again from the underworld: you have given me life and kept me from going down among the dead.
For his wrath is only for a minute; in his grace there is life; weeping may be for a night, but joy comes in the morning. By you my sorrow is turned into dancing; you have taken away my clothing of grief, and given me robes of joy; So that my glory may make songs of praise to you and not be quiet. O Lord my God, I will give you praise for ever.
Psalm 30
Psalm 148
Let everything which has breath give praise to the Lord. Let the Lord be praised.
Psalm 150
Last January 13th, our precious daughter completed one year of life!
In this so amazing day, what we can say is that we praise and thank entirely God for her life.
We glorify our God who sustained her since the pregnancy up to here. She faced so many challenges, but God protected her always. And we believe He will keep on protecting her and sustaining her, to the glory of the name of Jesus, who died to give us real life. We hope that many people can glorify the Maker of life, and can learn that He is close, powerful and faithful.
Thank you so much, Lord, for Vitoria´s life. We glorify you for her life!
Dear Vitoria, our little, beloved princess, congratulations! We love you so much! We are so proud of you, you are so brave and fighter, so sweet and calm, so strong and lovely.
May the Lord bless you with many and many years of life and health, that you may be very, very happy, that you overcome all your challenges and keep on glorifying God and helping so many people to know His love and His Power.
Happy Birthday!!!
With so much love,
Mom and Daddy
Give praise to the Lord. Let the Lord be praised from the heavens: give him praise in the skies. Let them give praise to the name of the Lord: for he gave the order, and they were made. Kings of the earth, and all people; princes, and all judges of the earth: Both young men, and maidens; old men, and children: Let them give glory to the name of the Lord: for his name only is to be praised: his kingdom is over the earth and the heaven. He has put on high the horn of his people, for the praise of all his saints; even the children of Israel, a people which is near to him. Let the Lord be praised.

Your story has inspired me and my brother and his expecting girlfirend. Today they found out that their baby has acrania and their doctor said that they should consider terminating the pregnancy. Your story helps fill us with hope and the miracles that god can perform! Please help us pray for my unborn niece or nephew... They have to see a specialist to find out more but we are all praying that God will see to it that this baby will be an amazing miracle just like Victoria is!!! Thank you for you inspiration!!
