Giving thanks for family and friends

Today I'm thankful for...
Having medical insurance to help cover costs for our family
My health
Getting to help people in my career choice
Living a clean life

I'm very tired tonight after a stressful day. I can say that I love what I chose for a career, and cherish I have the ability to do it. I know that I could be successful in other career paths, but could I ever find that job that I could experience getting to care for both kids and their parents? Even when I have a stressful, tiring, emotional day or week, I'm ready to take on the next challenge with the same vigor as I had the day before. Bring on tomorrow!!!

We have had some of the best meals delivered to our home. Words can't described the joy this food brings the Molina-Wilkerson family. Thank you all the taking the time to not only make the meals, but getting it to our home. (if your having a problem with the pesky gate at the bottom of the hill, just ram through it). The variety of foods brought to us is amazing, and I need to find a way to start a recipe website, so all could share in these delights?

Lourdes has been keeping up with her breathing without the oxygen. She has also been eating her bottles fairly well (I think Lulu is discouraged because she feeds Lourdes during the days when she seems to like to sleep, and I get to feed her at night when she's awake and eager to eat). She drink the whole 55 ml at the 8:30 PM feeding, and I really think she would have eaten more if it was offered? I can't get over how much she has grown. I think she tips the scales at around 6 pounds now, and you can begin to see rolls under her chin? She eats every 4 hours and she's taking 55 ml at a sitting. That much high protein milk would put rolls on any one? Tomorrow we will be taking turns, Lulu and I, being with her. I know that I'm looking forward to spending more time with Lourdes tomorrow then I would normally get.
