Distance

May 29, 2007 3:55 pm

Summer and I decided to go home today.  We’ve been staying at the hospital overnight since Wednesday and those small rooms have got the best of us.  It is a very hard decision to leave while your child is recovering in NICU but after talking with the doctors and nurses we felt Tatum needed us to be at our best when she returns home.  She is so amazing and strong.  She has her mothers strength and big eyes.

I return to work tomorrow (Wednesday).  This will probably be the hardest three days at work I’ve ever had.  Harder than the week before you go on vacation.  My body will be at the office, but my mind at the hospital.  Maybe I can stay super busy not to think about any of this until I leave the office.  She comes home with us Sunday night or Monday morning.  That will be the best and scariest day.

Thanks for everyones prayers.

Hey bro. You deserve some much needed rest though I definately can understand how hard that is. We thank God for your little blessing. Allie can’t stop talking about her and she’s hasn’t even met her yet. She has been praying for ‘baby Tatum to feel better’ everyday! Love to all of you.

Hey Chris and Summer! I know things are tough right now, and I think it’s a wise decision to get some rest. Just wanted to let you know we are praying for you and your sweet baby. By the way, she is very beautiful! Remember, in our weakness He is made strong. I love you guys, and you’ll be going home soon!!!!
