Liberty!

Eli was liberated today—Finally I was able to hold him! A common expression in the NICU is "he's the boss"; well, his now favorite nurse, aptly named Liberty, decided that he was showing signs that he was ready. It was an incredible moment, one that words fail to describe. For almost four weeks, we had waited to hold our little boy and the wait, at times, was excruciating. We had watched other parents holding their babies while ours remained behind plexiglass. Our turn has finally arrived and we are overjoyed. Daddy is next!
