It was a year ago that I sat at home reading your blog and your tweets. I was expecting my "Baby". I remember when you told all of us that you were helicoptered into Toronto. Crazy!<br /><br />Little One is a miracle. So happy to have met her. :)<br /><br />Love ya. <br />humpshumpsNbumphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09233620077774019817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22578035.post-17754859531463408192009-09-09T22:47:45.967-04:002009-09-09T22:47:45.967-04:00Jackie:

It scares me to think of what could have happened. I am constantly in awe of her.

LOL!<br /><br />Thank you for your comment. I was thinking about you today, actually! I was going to give you a call. Hope things are going well where you are. I guess even with T back in school, things still aren't slowing down for you, eh?<br /><br />I got a call from the lady who organizes the Toy Library on the Island, and she was telling me the dates for play groups. I am tempted to take LO so she can socialize with other babies...but more for me to meet other moms! Then I turned back into my paranoid self and thought of all the germs and icky stuff that can get passed around in play groups if toys aren't cleaned properly...and with H1N1 being a concern...<br /><br />LOL! I know! Paranoid! Though LO seems to have a very strong immune system, she's a preemie.

You guys were there through it all. The leading up to the pregnancy, the pregnancy, the complications, the bed rest, the preterm birth...<br /><br />Thank you for helping me get through everything. As odd as it may sound, but having access to the blog from my hospital bed was part of what kept me going. Knowing that there were people sending positive thoughts, well wishes, magical baby dust, prayers, and what have you...it all helped me through everything I was going through.<br /><br />I remember your comments in particular. You always seemed to know just the right things to say.

I remember being so scared for you when you went on bed rest, so worried when you went in the hospital, so worried again when she was born and yet so young. <br /><br />And then when it started to look (to me) like she was going to be OK, but you were pulled SO thin, back and forth between the hospital and the house, and your husband lonely and worried and working so hard on the Island, I started to think ahead to that time when she would be OK, and when that horrid, stressful, scary time when you were all trying so hard to figure out what was the best thing to do, day by day, and just wanting to be home together....there were so many of us out here in the bloggy world, wanting you to be home where you belonged. Wanting you to be together and out of the danger of the moment, and worrying about dishes and a good night's sleep instead of your darling baby's health. We all wanted that so much.<br /><br />So now, now that you're there, finally, and you've been there awhile, and can just relax into the normal stress of a healthy baby and family and friends and stress and joy, we are all of us just *so* glad.Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00653383372182667361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22578035.post-68333733274870407692009-09-08T21:53:03.340-04:002009-09-08T21:53:03.340-04:00Barbara:
