These Five Keys

Just a quick update ... Justin and I have had a long day today. Although I must say that they all have been pretty long since last week. At any rate, we were able to solidify some things for Addison's service, which will be this Friday at 6:00 PM at the church. Our intention is to celebrate her birth and life. In those four hours, our lives were changed forever. It will be a different kind of service, considering the situation, but the goal is to honor and remember Addison. She was so perfect to us ... how much more perfect in the presence of Jesus.

Jackson is doing great. He had a good day. They took his IV out and he was under the bili lights for jaundice, but they turned those off today as well since his bilirubin counts were down. He is eating so well from a bottle and will be up to 1 ounce of milk by the morning. He'll stay at that amount for a little while and then they'll begin to up his amount again. So far, so good. We went tonight and just stared at him after Justin got done feeding him. He is so precious to us.

Thank you again for your prayers - we appreciate them so much more than you know. I assure you that we are getting through this only by God's presence in our lives and by others supporting us. In the midst of such difficult circumstances, we are blessed.
