After just three days in the hospital, we are back home. It's a strange feeling being in the hospital now. We are so nervous that we are going to be there for a long time. You feel so helpless. It's a horrible feeling having to ask another person to get your daughters formula . . . having to ask if you can hold your daughter.
But, hopefully, this will all be over soon. The cardiologists are meeting Friday and they are proposing that she have her repair on February 15th or 16th. The decision will be made by the group. I am terrified that my baby will have to go through a surgery like this but if that is the path God has chosen for us, I know it is the path we must go down. We're not sure what she will be like after the surgery. Will she become a perfectly pink, chubby baby that eats more than 3 ounces at a time? Will she be off oxygen immediately? Will her breathing stop being so labored? Will she continue to be a perfectly happy baby no matter what is thrown at her? Only God knows and only time will tell!
So, we wait until Friday . . .

love you and praying....
My thoughts and prayers are with you guys. Remember Lamentations 3:22-24 "The steadfast love of the LORD never ceases, his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is thy faithfulness. "The LORD is my portion," says my soul, "therefore I will hope in him."
