just look at how happy she looks. I wish we had known that this how it would be earlier, it would have made everything easier for everyone. When Analee and i woke her up this morning, I told her that today was her big day and that she was getting to go home. I told her how much I had enjoyed her coming to visit me, and that I would miss her when she was at her home. We got her dressed and I did her hair, we had prayer, then I hugged and kissed her. I started to cry, and she told me not to, and I told her that it was never easy for me to say good-bye. Then it was out the door and into the car they went. I fell apart then, it is amazing to me that the bladder is attached to your tears while being pregnant. I was crying so hard that I didn't think I was going to make it to the bathroom, but I did. I am glad that it is over, and that she seems so happy, I hope that it continues. I have posted a ton of pictures, but this is important to me and I want to share. These are pictures of her room finished before she got to see it, the courtyard outside her door and then of her just looking happy....I haven't seen her look this good since before Opa died last year. I somehow think that he is proud of us and what we have done for her, he loved her and always wanted the best for her...I think she is finally getting it.
Above all else...
