This evening I'm thankful for...
A wonderful team of doctors and nurses caring for Lulu and Baby Lourdes
Saint Mary's Hospital
All the money and research on Neonatal care of premature babies
God watching over our family
I stayed only for 5 to 10 minutes with Lourdes, I wanted to be with Lulu for the recovery from the general anesthesia (I was hoping that she might indulge privy information that consciously she would never tell me)? Lulu was now in the Labor and delivery recovery room, and lucky for us they don't have a room #7 there too! I held on to her hand as she was coming out of the anesthesia the whole time telling her how much Baby Lourdes looked like her; dark long black hair, long fingers, and distinctive Molina facial features. How great that she looked and what wonderful the care she was receiving.
Lulu's recovery was uneventful, but in a very personal way extremely gratifying. Not in the way that you would want to see your lovely wife go through the process of having our baby by C-section, but gratifying in the since that for once I could be there when my she needed me, not the other way around! After two back surgeries in the last 48 months, Lulu was always emotionally there for me and she to supported me through some difficult times. I relished at the opportunity to be there for her as she had been for me. I could feel our mutual love for each other leap to a level never before experienced in our 12 years of marriage, and as she gave me the thumbs up coming out of the anesthesia; I heard that higher calling whispering into my ear, "This is what love is all about, love is not what you receive, but what you give."
How could my life be more perfect and how could a person feel more purpose in their life then I did at that moment?
