VISITORS:
This week flew by quickly. On Monday, my husband was able to stay home. We were able to relax (a little). I was able to see Esther... and that afternoon, we even brought our daughters to visit her too! What a very precious and special time that was for us!
That night we celebrated the birthdays of my other daughters. It was princess theme and it was beautiful! My mother-in-law, a fabulous decorator, themed each table to each princess and even had photos of the girls to match! :) My mother provided all the delicious food and my aunt made a beautiful princess doll cake! :) We are so thankful for the family and dear friends who were able to come and celebrate with us!
On Tuesday night, Andy's parents were able to come and hold Esther for the first time!Then on Wednesday, my mother came and held her for the first time!! :D
On Thursday, I discovered that Esther discharged date was moved from Monday to SATURDAY. It was right in the middle of our faith missions conference and the day before my parents' wedding anniversary. LOL :)
I was not even prepared at home for her! It was a bit nerve-wreaking on Thursday night.... I had no idea how I was going to get everything done.... but I realized God wanted her home that day... and I trusted Him to take care of my needs and help with the things I couldn't do alone.
One of my biggest answered prayers.... This morning, while I rested in the hospital with my sleeping beauty, Esther, and learned how to care for her... my sweet husband, mom and aunt did a major deep cleaning in our apartment!!! WOW... It was so incredibly cleaned... Everything sparkled. THANK YOU!
HOME:
Our journey to get her home is now over... but now, I face another challenge.... BALANCING three baby girls under three. :D So keep me in your prayers.
Prayer Request:
* Sleeping arrangements
* Esther's growth and good health
* Rest and breaks
* Strength for me
THANK YOU EVERYONE FOR ALL YOUR PRAYERS, LOVE, AND GIFTS!!!!! We are so blessed to have you in our lives and appreciate everything you have done for us!
