Sweep Jane

I swept Jane up into my arms, cradling and staring at her for an hour-and-a-half. It was bliss. I would have held her longer, but Elisabeth was getting anxious to hold her. All of her vital signs were perfect the entire time.

After a month of crying and praying over her, giving her my finger to grasp with her hand, I finally got to hold her.

There are so many things connected to Jane to monitor her or dose her, all to keep her alive. Now let’s start getting these things off so that we can twirl her around.

    Oy Daniel, you sure know how to make a girl cry…me not Jane (it sounds like you have the opposite affect on Jane, she couldn’t have been happier in your arms)! So very happy that you got to have that special bonding time that you’ve waited so long for. Happy 1 month birthday to Miss Jane (it’s the 18th down under). Couldn’t think of a better birthday present than being held in her loving parent’s arms.

    This is by far one of the sweetest things I have ever read. This is one of those things that you print out and frame for Jane to read when she’s older. There’s something so special about the love a father has for his daughter!

    Ohhh, Daniel, I’m crying for joy for you! Thank you, Lord! And I agree with Katsya – you have to print that out and have it framed for her. What a gift. xoxo E

    So sweet, Daniel. I’m SO elated you got to hold your precious daughter. I hope you got a photo of that moment to frame along with your loving words.

    God Bless You ALL ~ we are praying for you all. May that liver (and the rest of her) continue to improve and may she THRIVE and be beautiful, living proof of God’s mercy and love.

    I must go give my children another hug good night and NEVER take those hugs for granted!

    Thank you for sharing,
