Showered with love...

On Wednesday, January 10th, a lot of beautiful people came together to throw a shower for our little Tess. Folks from Ellen’s office, the Historic Arkansas Museum, stripped the shelves from every baby department in the tri-state area and threw us one grand party! Only a week ago we were stressed about being prepared for the trip, and now we are not only prepared for the trip, but her first year of life! It was truly a wonderful event and everyone was so generous and thoughtful.
We never really knew what to expect when we started this journey, but the love and compassion we have received from friends and family has been tremendous. I hope each one of you reading this understands how much you mean to us. When we walked into the room the other day, seeing the balloons and pink, pink, PINK, it made everything feel real. I think about her day and night, but not until this party did it hit me. Soon, she will be with us all. Soon, she will be home. Thanks, guys.
