In Their Arms

I am so excited to tell you that today has been a GREAT day! First of all, the response over the bracelets has been incredible! I was expecting our close friends and family to participate but I had no idea the outpouring of love and support and excitement we would get! We know that you all have been praying, but to take that extra step and wear the bracelets in support is really making a difference! As far as Cartersville goes, they are at Riley's, Periwinkle, J.Tanner Salon and will be in Specialty Accounting Monday. They will be brought to Tabernacle, First Baptist, and Sam Jones tomorrow. I am getting some things worked out in Cedartown and should be sending them that way tomorrow. Details to come :)

And as far as today goes, Thomas and Jennifer FINALLY got to hold their beautiful baby boy. I couldn't wait to get home and upload some pictures! He also was fed milk for the first time today and is able to digest it! Plus tomorrow they have plans to completely wean him from the ventilator. His activity and movement have been the most we have seen since birth and he is actually trying to take the tube out himself!

Yesterday was just rough. It was discouraging, disappointing and we heard everything we DIDN'T want to hear. But by the end of the night, we were encouraged, full of anticipation and almost excited. Then when we got to the hospital today, Jennifer was just walking down the hall with a smile on her face, and the only word I can describe her as was joyous. And it was contagious... I hope these special picture bless you like they have us!
