It feels so great to be home! I know Olivia and Avery would agree! Olivia is doing great. Her discharge echo showed normal function in her heart, with the exception of a tiny bit of leakage from a valve, which should resolve on its own. Dr.'s said she should never need another heart surgery She's breathing very well, and is wide awake She's a completely different baby! She's not constantly sleepy like she was before. Now that her heart works correctly, she can be a normal baby She has stopped sleeping in her crib, she will only sleep in the wrap, in bed with me, or in the swing. Not a huge deal, although I could potentially get in trouble for letting her sleep in bed with me (foster care rules). Right now she comes first, rules can come later! She's very happy and content. I'm excited to see her personality after she's taken off of the blood pressure medication. With her blood pressure normal, I imagine she will be even more active!

Madison was picked up early this morning to be moved to a new foster home, and Solas was brought by about an hour ago. His sweet little face when he saw me was priceless and heart-melting! He's very happy to be back and is adjusting seamlessly. It's definitely an adjustment for me to get used to having another toddler in the house again!

Thank-you everyone for your continued prayers and thoughts, they've made all the difference for me. This last week was incredibly hard, but knowing I had a whole community online praying for us, in addition to our friends, family, and church, helped me get through each day. God is good

What a wonderful update!!!! GOD IS GOOD!!!!

I'm so glad you're all home safe and sound and Olivia is doing so well. Praise God for no more surgeries!
I'm sorry Maddison had to leave you but it's all in God's plan. So happy to hear that Solas is adjusting so well already. I bet he missed you.
