Something Special!!

They say that you have to have rain to have a rainbow, and that is totally how I feel about the way the babies came, and the people we met along that crazy journey. Today the babies got an early birthday present in the mail from Tena....the most amazing NICU nurse at Primary Children's. We fell in love with Tena instantly, she was there for us to cry on her shoulder, answer our many many questions, and to celebrate the good! She called Reese "button" and loved on her for us when we couldn't be there...I was always so relieved to call up there and find out that Tena had her....

So today the babies both got presents and a card from her (she always kept track of Whit and Tate too..and made sure that they were doing good). I love getting the letters, it makes me cry, but they are always happy and grateful tears. It takes me back, and reminds me just how lucky we were to get these babies home and healthy. I am not sure how many nurses would remember a birthday both years....but apparently it is someone special!

Thank you Tena.....thank you, thank you, thank you.....we think of you all the time. I am so taken back that you remember my babies and love them so much!! I can't wait until Reese is old enough to hear the whole story and understand what an important person you are in her life. We were all so happy to hear from you...Thanks again for the presents.....but most of all for remembering.... You are definitely something special!! We love you!!!



This one is for you Tena!!
