Baby Eli




Eli was smiling and cutting up a sight. He was soooo happy to be home. He missed everyone, he kept holding his tiny hands out and grabbing our faces. As you can see from the incision it was a very invasive surgery. The incision is from one ear all the way around to the other. And he's one tough little man to be as happy as he is. He's had a rough start in life, but he's a real trooper. Eli's mommy is my youngest sister. We're very close, and I worry about her like I do with my own children. But she done really well through it all, her and her hubby both. Me and Jenni (my sis) are very close, and I'm so very proud of her. She's such a good mommy, and I love her very much. As a person, she's probably the best person I know. She has a good heart, a BIG heart! And she's caring, faithful, honest, and the best sister or friend a person could want. I'm so blessed to have her in my life. It hurt me to see her worry about little Eli, but of course we were all scared and worried. I thank the Lord for my family. I know that God has big plans for our little Eli.
