Well, we are finally home and getting settled in. We left the hospital about 12:30 on Thanksgiving Day and we have so much to be thankful for! First of all, our greatest need has already been met by the Father sending His Son, Jesus, to take the wrath that we deserve for our many sins! That’s enough there to be overly ecstatic about!
Not to mention the other gifts that He’s graciously bestowed on us! He provided for us to be able to stay in the hospital with our children safe and happy with friends from church even in the midst of the holiday season. Thank you Herceg’s and Mastromarinos and Cantillos! Thank you all for being flexible and helping as needs arose at the last minute! Then, we get to enjoy our new blessing with Daddy at home with us to help me out with caring for the kids’ physically and spiritually…not to mention meal prep, laundry, keeping the house in order, grocery shopping, etc. Jeremy is such a gift to me and I know He was handpicked by the Father for me. Thank you, Lord, for my husband!!
Brianna Joy has been a joy to us already in just the 4 short days we’ve known her. She’s been the typical Mayhew easy baby…sleeping, eating, pottying and just today started spitting up! She even spit up on Lela and I said, “she’s paying Lela back for all the times she spit up on me”. I’m sure Tamra is thinking the same thing! I remember one time at church when Lela spit up all down the back of Tamra’s nice dark dress…anyone else remember being spit up on by Lela?? I know all of them have spit up, but NONE like Lela! :o) I hope her sister won’t try to outdo her!
Well, right now Daddy and the others are at the grocery store filling in our gap for lunchtime meals. I’m enjoying some quiet time while Brianna sleeps…I should probably be doing that too, but I just wanted to take a few minutes and send this little update.
