Your first night sleeping at home was so much better than the hospital. Daddy and I laid you between us on a giant fluffy purple pillow, and snuggled on both sides of you. We had our arms around you all night and, again, I simply could not go to sleep. You were just so beautiful, I simply couldn't close my eyes for fear of missing one gurgle or coo.
You had tons of special visitors today. Everyone wanted to be near you, and hold you. Cliff was one of your very sweet visitors who loved you even before you were born. His little baby boy died many years ago, and he said that Baby Cliff was the glue in his family- never overlooked or forgotten. He made his little family try extra hard to live lives worthy of Heaven. I thought you would get along well with Baby Cliff, so we set up a playdate for when we're all in Heaven together.
At 6 PM, we took a family walk outside to show you all the fall colored leaves. The sun was setting and it made the sky pink and yellow. I think you enjoyed all the crispy fresh air and pretty colors. We got back home just before your 4th birthday. We prepared a bottle of milk with a little flat candle on top. Everyone sang you happy birthday.
More visitors came tonight and loved you. The Pearson family brought you flowers, and even held tight your sister Sonya so she wouldn't feel left out. You are so loved!
