Still not home...

Sorry I haven't updated the blog...I realized as I headed back to Jackson on Tuesday morning that I didn't have the laptop.

Mary Elizabeth is doing great...eating great, etc. but they needed to run some more tests so they delayed coming home a few days. I got in earlier today but I had so much to get caught up here plus I am exhausted. Who knew just sitting at a hospital could be so wearing?

We have been told that she will be released Monday at the latest but we are hoping for Saturday. Everything is just up in the air but we are still doing great and trusting in HIM.

I promise to return all the phone calls!! I am so thankful for all the love and support and trust me, every time I check messages I end up in tears all over again because everyone is just so wonderful. We will probably head back to Jackson at some point tomorrow (I just can't stand being away from her and yet it is hard to juggle everything at home when I am gone) The boys are so anxious to meet their new sister and Anna can't wait to get her hands on her again.

AGAIN, thank you for you love, support and most importantly PRAYERS. We feel them and continue to need them. I will keep you all posted as I can...

Brea,

I am SO very excited for you. My heart is so full right now and I'm blubbering like a baby. Mary Elizabeth is beautiful! It is awesome to read about your love for her. I pray God's blessings on her health, and blessings on your children as they get to know their new sister and get used to sharing Mom with an infant! Congratulations!!!

Brea,
Congradulations on your new "heart" baby...she's growing into your heart instead of under it! God is so Good all the time!
may Mary Elizabeth come to know her LORD at an early age and serve Him with all her heart.
Praising Him with you,
Susan Harris
