What a beautiful day it was to be driving home from B'ham with my sweet little girl smiling in her car seat! We made it home around 2:00 and we spent most of the afternoon playing outside. It felt so good to be with all three of my children - in our home and in our yard! The boys just loved and loved on YouYou...it was so sweet.
This will be short tonight because I am so very tired. YouYou decided she was terrified of the clock in our room last night so she slept with her arms locked around my neck most of the night. I hope to post some pictures tomorrow sometime. I have some that show her the first time we went home, and then ones taken later that show how much better she looks after the swelling went down. I also hope to catch up on my emails tomorrow, or soon after...I might just decide to love on my kids all day instead :)
I talked to Christian's family this afternoon before we left and they were still waiting on the surgery to begin. I called his mom's cell phone this evening but did not get an answer but I will try again tomorrow. I will continue to pray for this family and I would love for you to join me.
Hugs to you all...
I am so glad ya'll are home again. I have been so caught up in the story -- I have cried, I have laughed, I have worried and I have prayed. Bless your sweet family!

Erica and Aaron - I have just found this blog through the link that Matt posted on Sara Weber's facebook page. (round about way) Anyway, I have spent the morning reading the entire blog and crying my way through most of it. I am sorry I did not know most of this until know. All of your family will be in my prayers. Please let me know if there is anything I can do for you. I still remember being at the Kaufmann's house when Erica told me you had decided to adopt. I enjoyed the conversation so much and the joy in both of your eyes. I know that God will carry you through this. From reading the blog, you can already see His Blessings and Grace. Love to you all, Debbie Tidwell
ReplyDeleteErica and Aaron.... I am SOOOO happy for you to FINALLY have that sweet baby home! Now you can finally begin to enjoy life as a family TOGETHER!!!! Man, what an amazing story! What awesome miracles! You You has been blessed with such a caring family, but you are indeed the blessed ones. God has blessed YOUR family with this beautiful child. Take care! Love, Leanne
ReplyDeleteMany prayers for you all, and for Christian and his family. I'm thrilled that you are home and YouYou is doing so well!
