We had 50 wonderful days to spend with Alexandria and I captured many of those moments on film, and I took enough pictures that Kimberly called me “the daddy paparazzi.” I put together a video of many of the moments and people who shared the journey with us, with her. It’s hard to believe that it was two weeks before I was comfortable allowing other people to hold her, so worried about how fragile she was… but she just had to be shared. The video begins with her birth and baptism and follows the timeline of her life, day by day. Below is an updated copy of that video, it’s best watched full screen but with 480p quality. I’ve found the youtube HD quality setting lags a bit (click on the snowflake looking icon in the lower right-hand corner after it starts playing):
Beautiful beyond words ~ what a lovely testimony of your precious little daughter’s life.
Thank you for sharing it with us; all who are privileged to see it are sure to be blessed.
What a beloved little girl, now and forever. Praising God for creating Alexandria Kimberly Vogt!
Doug & Kim, Your video is fantastic, great way to hold up Alex and her impact on our hearts. You made me laugh on your Vday post about the smushed cupcake. I will never forget Gabe’s prayer right before the funeral service, Come Lord Jesus be our guest …. and the gift of Alexandria is a great blessing to me and I know to you too.
Absolutely beautiful. Crying just like I was at her service. What a beautiful tribute to your sweet daughter.
I have never met you, but I just want you to know that your video really touched my heart. I can tell that even though her life here on earth was short, she was loved (and still is) beyond belief. I can’t imagine how difficult it must be to lose a child. I admire your strength and faith. God Bless!
P.S. I also have a little boy with an extra chromosome (T21)
so beautiful. just cried so much at the end of this. what a blessing her life seems to have been.
I have never met you, but I just want you to know that your video really touched my heart. I can tell that even though her life here on earth was short, she was loved (and still is) beyond belief. I am from the African heritage, my dauhgter was exact replica of Alexandria, she died ten days after birth, August 2014. I admire your strength and faith. God Bless you!
