Ahhhhhh...my own bed

I am back home and so deliriously happy to see my girls and Mr. at Home and my own pillows and my own internet connection.

Because these are the important things in life.

In Granny news, she has experienced a marked improvement over the past couple of days. Thursday morning, her stats were great and she was awake and responsive. The doc gave us the news that it would be weeks or months until she would be able to get off the ventilator, but as soon as we left, he decided she looked great and turned the vent off. She's been breathing on her own for 2 days and will be transferred to a rehab hospital tomorrow. All in all, a bright and happy turn of events.

After talking to the doc on Thursday morning, my mom and I joined my aunt and uncle for the long drive back to NC. Having Uncle Phil and Aunt Shirley along made the drive seem so much quicker and easier. We got home in plenty of time to sit and rest before getting L into all her fluff and stuff for the dress rehearsal. If you've never seen a bunch of 4-year-olds try to do 2 dance routines in front of a large audience, you simply haven't lived. They are hilarious! I got a few pics that I'll post tomorrow.

Glad you are back and that your granny is doing better. Can't wait to see the pictures from the dress rehearsal(sp)!
