Caring for the Caregivers

I gotta shout out to our awesome family that takes such care of us. Friday after melting in the hospital hallway, it was clear that our night-out couldn't come soon enough.

Clinton's folks gave us a pair of movie passes, my Dad sent me a gift card to the Cheesecake factory, and Emma's Aunt Aleigh was in town from California and generously watched the kids and sent us out for the evening.

Emma was cleared for church, and she earned a lot of looks and smiles and comments. After church, we headed for my Mom's for dinner where we caught the premier of Emma's own support movie. Cousins, aunts, uncles, and grandparents combined to make a 5-minute love note of inspiration and support.

We are so grateful to have such a great support network to hold us up and love us. Thanks for loving Emma and for loving her family.
