\"april-8.jpg\"<\/a>In case you were wondering, Greyson does indeed have very kissable cheeks.\u00a0 Today he spent most of the day sleeping even when I tried to roust him, but one time he woke up fussing just a bit and so I picked him up and held him to my chest.\u00a0 It was quite a feat for me to get him there.\u00a0 I am still intimidated by the vent tubes and they can seem so inflexible and unmanagable and short.\u00a0 Well, anyway, I was rewarded for my courage and hard work when my little boy softly laid his head against my shoulder and gave a little snuggle of relief.\u00a0 That is the mommy moment I was looking for today.\u00a0Daddy showed up later and we had bath time.\u00a0 Greyson was being so cute that he had nurses going out to get other nurses to come in and see him in the tub.\u00a0The pulmonologist stopped by today to check in.\u00a0 It is hard to tell if he is pleased by his progress but he didn’t seem displeased.\u00a0 We had a few other visitors today, some Nicu friends and also a friend from church who is in nursing school happened to be visiting here for her class today.You know how they say that it takes 10 good comments in a day to overcome a negative one?\u00a0 I just want to tell you how thankful I am for the people who encourages us through words each day.\u00a0 While Bob and I would certianly characterize our experiences here at the hospital as positive, there times when messages of negativity come our way.\u00a0 Sometimes a sentence spoken casually by a doc or staff member can leave us deflated or feeling defeated in a moment.\u00a0 God brings us strength to overcome these obstacles and he has used so many of you to bring encouragement, peace, and hope at the exact moment it is needed.\u00a0 Praise God for his provision to us to meet each day and its challenges.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
