So what now?


Damon and all of us for that matter are asking this question. We're home, so what now? I guess the answer is just simply, life. At least that is my prayer. Although life as we know it now is definetly not what is used to be.

I'm going to tell you a secret about me, I'm a big day dreamer. My mind thinks up things and plays out situations all the time. I find myself thinking tomorrow we will go to this store, or we'll go do this, or I'd like to try out that restraunt sometime. And then I remember that we can't do things like that anymore. But you know what? It doesn't matter. Our little baby is home right now and doing well and that makes up for missing out on anything else.

I have read other baby's stories about their HLHS journey and many of them include emergency trips to the hospital after first coming home. I look at Damon and I think that won't happen to him, he is doing so well. But then again I never thought I would go through an experience like this either. I'm not saying that I expect it to happen and I certainly pray everyday that it won't. But as I said above, I'm a daydreamer and my mind takes over sometimes.

So pray that for now our life is just that, life. If God will take care of that, then we will settle for only half of our family going to church and only getting take out from that restraunt we wanted to try.

Feel free to keep calling us, we love to hear from everyone. Talk to you soon.
