Facts:
Julia and Viggo are being moved to another room in Sacred Heart.
The wait for Daniel Jakob continues, and we hope it continues for weeks and weeks.
Barbara and Pamela are back at home tonight.
Feelings:
Barbara and I are both very tired. However, we were able to enjoy dinner as a family (thank you Marcy for the soup!).
Just now Barbara and I relaxed by the wood stove and discussed the past couple of days and our thoughts about how we may be able to arrange Christmas Eve and Christmas day. We are trying to keep some family traditions alive but at the same time, simplify things so that we don't burn ourselves out.
Pamela and Samuel wrapped a pile of gifts. I had purchased many of them via on-line a couple of weeks ago because Barbara was already very busy with helping her mom and dad. The kids have all bought a few things as well. So we will celebrate Jesus' birth with gift giving. Pamela and Samuel did a great job on decorating our home a few days ago.
We hope to go to church Sunday morning as a family (minus Julia and Viggo, of course). Then we hope to visit Julia and Viggo on Sunday afternoon.
We choose to keep our hearts resting in God's love. We choose to keep the birth of Jesus as the reason for our celebration. We are grateful to be celebrating together as a family.

Excuse me. I would like to note that Samuel did NOT decorate the house a couple weeks ago. Not one bit. I did one week ago though... Just so we're straight on the facts ;-) He is a good kid and everything though...
We're still in the same room and things are still stable with Julia. Now we're going to try to get some sleep and we're hoping to have an uneventful night...
