A Christmas Miracle

It has been a long and at times very challenging, heart wrenching, rollercoaster 171 days for Mr T, Lily and I…Lily has worked so very hard to get where she is today and decided all those months ago on a Saturday night in July that she was going to hang around. She is yet to discover how strong she has been, the will she has summoned and the courage she has within.

With hearts full of joy and bursting with excitement, we are very excited to say that tomorrow we are bringing our baby girl home.

As we leave the hospital tomorrow, Lily for the first time will feel fresh air on her face, wind in her fluffy hair and sunshine on her toes. So many firsts to experience, but the best one perhaps, is that we will have our family together, at home, for Christmas.

As with any newborn, leaving the hospital is only the beginning; there is still lots to be done, appointments to attend, medications to administer, feeds to pump and maybe some sleep too.

All those things aside, I just can’t wait for the simple pleasure of enjoying an entire day at home, with Mr T and Lily.

We’re coming to get you Lily!
