and you can’t help but smile. As I type this, we are now well beyond 24 hours in and Asher is doing great. The rest of us, on the other hand, are still trying to figure things out. Having two kids is TOTALLY different than bringing home your first. Couple that with the fact that Asher requires extra attention and is still hooked up to a few wires and you’ve got one crazy house.

Jadyn is enjoying her role as a big sister, but is not quite used to sharing her mom with Asher. She’s been through a lot the last few weeks, so it is understandable. I’ve been spending a lot of time with her outside to give Andrea and Asher some space. It is so much fun to watch our daughter interact with her little brother. She is completely captivated by his every move and sound. I look forward to seeing their relationship grow in the years to come.

Your response to yesterday’s news was amazing. Thank you all for your continued support and prayer. For those of you who are new readers and haven’t left Asher a comment for his baby book, hop on over here and do so when you get a chance. Those comments and words of encouragement are what has helped us get through the past 5 weeks. My guess is many of you can find similar encouragement there as well.
