Our first family picture


On late Wednesday afternoon, Elaine was able to hold Jack Henry through Kangaroo Care. It was an amazing experience watching his reaction to being held by Elaine. Before being moved from the isolet, his respiration rate was slightly elevated and then he fussed quite a bit at being moved over to Elaine to only have him completely melt into Elaine once he realized that his Mommy was holding him.

So this is our first family picture!

Dear Elaine and Stephen,

Thank you so much for sharing your family photos and keeping us updated on Jack Henry's progress. I had tears of joy when I saw pictures of our little nephew. He is truly blessed to have you as parents.

I have checked out the site twice today and was happy to find new pictures since this morning. I may become addicted to your blog...

Love,

Kristin

Dear Aunt Elaine and Uncle Stephen,

I'm happy that you had your baby. And, I hope I can come to your house sometime with my family. When I come to your house I would like to hold Jack Henry.

Love,

Hey Mom & Dad
What a wonderful miracle that you are holding in your arms. God is good - all the time.
Now the fun begins for the both of you - the joy of raising a son.

A happy deacon and his wife.
