Tuesday

Today Lily has eaten from a bottle both clear liquids and her formula. She is resting comfortably and will go home either tomorrow or thursday. Mommy and Daddy have to take a how to care for your heart patient child class - how to pick her up, bathe her, change diapers, feed and medicate and Infant CPR tomorrow. We also have to get the carseat back from Grandma Terry the washer woman. Lily is smiling more today and on less pain meds - just Tylenol. We are so greatful to all our wonderful friends and family members for the prayers for Lily, and our family. He is amazing and has seen us through this scary ordeal. The next challenge is for mommy to relax enough at home to sleep through the night with no round the clock care or machines beeping. Lily-bug will have to come back here in a week for chest x-rays and a checkup with the surgeon. After that who knows? I hope to write you tomorrow from the comfort of my own home and give Daddy an extra special birthday present of all of us at home.
