What a wonderful picture. I can see how well she now feels. She will be sure to be a character. Just you wait. When she starts feeling good all the time you will have to hold onto your hat. We are grateful that things are going in the right direction. Our Love to all. Jim and Char

Praise God from whom all blessings flow.
I’m so glad to see that you all had a Merry Christmas.
Ella just looks so sweet. I can’t believe all of her smiles. They just don’t stop. That is awesome that she is feeling so much better. Nice to know that they are taking it slow with Ella.
It’s great that Dr. Kays is back and able to get things back on track.
Your New Year is going to be an awesome one. Lots of exciting things will be happening. This will definitely be a New Year with a whole new you.
I remember going home from the hospital after Nadia was born and thinking…. wow!!! I have a baby. You leave the house and it’s just the two of you and you come home with a baby. That will be such a welcomed day for you all. It’s right around the corner. Keep taking small baby steps forward and before you know it…Ella will be home with you.
What a priceless and precious gift you are able to give Ella, in your breastmilk. Hopefully you will see lots of added benefits now. That was hard work for you and I hope that it pays off now.
I am excited to hear that Par went home. I pray that they have a safe trip home and that the transition is smooth.
Have another great day.
Love, Melissa

Ok, I must admit that I never understood internet realtionships and how people fell in love without ever meeting…now I get it! We love that little girl so much and can’t wait to see that grin in person. I am so proud of both of you and one day Ella will understand the power of her heavenly Father and how He strengthened her mom and dad. 2008 is going to be an awesome year for you guys!!
Much love – T
