Grace has arrived!







God is good all the time. This photo is a demonstration of God's grace and goodness in our lives. With literally thousands of people praying around the world for our baby Grace, she has lived up to her name. The heart doctor was just in and said that things could not be better and that Grace can go home as soon as the perinatal doctor gives her the okay. As far as her heart goes we will have regular check-ups and eventually will need a pacemaker but not today!

Jenn is resting and she is doing well. Grace ate for the first time like a champ then immediately demonstrated that the other end also was in working order. She had her first bath and mother and daughter are resting comfortably.

I will post more pictures soon.
