Summary
Oh friends, I really, really can’t wait for you to hear today’s show with Tricia Roos. I’m so grateful to know Tricia personally and see first hand how the Lord is using her story to speak of his faithfulness even in the deepest places of loss.
Tricia was three months into her pregnancy when she received a call that her unborn daughter had a rare condition that would be fatal. Against the advice of her medical team, she resolved to have her baby despite a chromosomal condition called Trisomy 18. In the midst of the uncertainty and pain, Tricia’s wish for a healthy baby girl changed into something more beautiful than she could have ever dreamed of.
Tricia’s story is a reminder of how God’s transforming power allows us to love deeper, go further, and grow more than we could ever have imagined for ourselves. I especially love Tricia’s words on learning to live for something bigger than ourselves—a great perspective to consider in our parenting. So glad you’re with us today!

| 0:02.0 | This is Cynthia Yannoff and you're listening to Pardon the Mess. |
| 0:16.0 | Each week we have honest discussions about the ups and downs of parenting and the lessons God is teaching us along the way. It's real, it's fun, and it's biblical. Life is messy. Don't walk |
| 0:26.1 | the parenting road alone. Hey guys, welcome to Park in the Mess. I'm glad that you're joining us |
| 0:34.2 | today. I'm glad it's January. As much as I love the holidays, it's nice to |
| 0:38.8 | have people back in school, some normalcy. I'm guessing you feel the same way. I wanted to tell you a |
| 0:43.5 | quick story before we kick off today's show of something that happened during the new year for our |
| 0:48.1 | family. We went skiing and so we were up on the mountain in our hotel condo thing. We had just checked in within like an hour. |
| 0:56.4 | And it was night. |
| 0:57.5 | And as my middle son's in the shower, we're getting organized. |
| 1:01.3 | The fire alarm goes off and it goes pitch black. |
| 1:03.9 | And I'm talking like fire alarm, the loudest thing you've ever heard. |
| 1:08.0 | And it's like that jarring mode of like, oh my gosh. |
| 1:10.6 | And the pitch black doesn't help the situation. No electricity. And so's like that jarring moment like, oh my gosh, and the pitch black doesn't help |
| 1:12.1 | the situation. No electricity. And so I'm like, okay, this is game time, man. We got to go. And so my |
| 1:17.0 | husband's banging on the door to get my son out of the shower. And I go out in the hallway |
| 1:21.2 | and I find the stairwell because I know these things, you guys. I know these things. You don't get on an elevator. And so I find the stairwell and I'm |
| 1:27.8 | waiting for my people and I've grabbed J.B. our little one. And I'm waiting. And finally I'm like, |
| 1:32.4 | okay, he's crying and it's chaotic in the halls. I'm like, I'm headed down the stairs because it's |
| 1:36.6 | going to take a while with him. So I start down the dark stairwell and I finally get to the bottom and I end up on some random like wing of this hotel and my people don't come and |
| 1:46.4 | they don't come and I find a door just in case. Now listen, I'm barefoot and in pajama bottoms. |
| 1:51.3 | Where I think I'm going in several feet of snow when it's seven degrees with my five year old, |
