Capturing a "first"

Thought I would post the "after" photo first because the first bath at home was definitely NOT a big hit with Miss Lindsay. The next photo says it all. Poor baby. You can see that her scar is healing beautifully. The smaller one to the left and at the bottom of her incision is from her chest tube. She is moving right along!

Natalie wanted to spend some time with Lindsay during the week last week. Lindsay just wasn't in the mood to play. Maybe next time Natalie! Can't wait for you to over again!

Heart Poem

It's a beautiful day up in heaven. Jesus is rounding up his tiniest angels, to go live on earth, and be born. One of the sweetest angels says to Jesus "I don't want to leave, I like it here, and I will miss you". He reassures the scared little angel that everything will be okay, and that he is just going for a visit. He is still not swayed on this idea. So Jesus kneels down, and says, "How about if you leave half of your heart here with me and take the other half with you, will that be okay?" The angel smiles and says, "I guess that will work". But the little angel is still a little scared. He asks,"Will I be okay with only half of my heart?" Jesus replies,"Of course you will, I have other angels there that will help out, and you will be fine." Then Jesus gives the angel more details about his plan. He says "When you are born, your mommy will be scared, so you have to be strong, and when you feel weak just remember that I have the other half of your heart". "Enjoy your time with your family, play and laugh everyday." "And when its time to come back to heaven, I will make your heart whole again. Always remember that you are not broken, just torn between two loves."
