Today, exactly 1 month after the surgery on October 14th, we have so much to be thankful for. I thank God that baby girl is doing great, has been on her feet, feeding well, gaining weight and one can hardly know what she had to go through.
Today, we also celebrate that baby girl has stopped breastfeeding and for the first time since we came back slept a whole night in her room. Before the surgery we had her on a routine and she had moved to her real bed and was excited about it. After the surgery, there was need for reassurance and she woke up endless times at night while in hospital , just to make sure we were there and she started breastfeeding almost through out the night. When we returned she toned down on the breastfeeding and would wake up once during the night. This was very frustrating to me because it took us many steps behind but today she seems to be on her way to independence and am proud of her.Love you so much baby girl.
Today, my beloved had to return to work after hanging out with us through the rough patch for one month. But am so thankful for him because I would never have gone through the before, during and after surgery period without him. He held me when I cried, he prayed for us, he fed baby girl throughout, he played and sang with her. Most of all , time together especially three weeks in the same hospital room day in day out drew us closer and I miss him much today. Thank you hun for just being there for Samara and myself, we can't give you anything but say we love you and are proud of you.
Most of all we thank God, one month later that He has kept us safe, healthy and at peace. We have peace reigning in our hearts and are looking forward to a bright future. We also can't thank Him enough but say , we shall live for Him alll the days of our lives. The scar will always remind us of His faithfulness and love for us as a family. Samara's favourite song is 'Jesus Loves Me'

Jesus loves me this I know, for the Bible tells me soIndeed we have never doubted of His love for Samara and for us as a family.We have never felt alone, He was and is always so close and has gifted us with family and friends who supported us. We are grateful to all and may the good Lord bless you all.
Little ones like me Samara, they are weak but He is strong,
Yes Jesus loves, Yes Jesus loves me, Yes Jesus loves me
The Bible tells me so.
