I apologize for the shape of my yard. We are never home to really take care of it.
We all just look thrilled!! We were pretty tired. Taylor didn't want to sit still (what else is new?)
Emilie just took in everything. She just looked and looked and looked.
Just lounging at HOME!! Yay!! Finally!! Very long awaited!!
(I love my sister!! I cried and cried when she had to leave. I thought she was home forever!)Well everybody!! Our long awaited day has happened!! Emilie was finally able to see where she lives. It was so exciting, even if it was just for the day. We left Saskatoon at noon and arrived in North Battleford at 1:30pm. Our first stop?? We took her to see Dr. Urbani - the doctor who delivered her and looked after my pregnancy. We took her away from the hospital and the doctors and nurses just to see another doctor. He was thrilled. It has been a long time. After that we took her to Lawrence Elementary (where I teach French) - just for a few minutes to show her where Mommy works. We then went to Heritage where we stayed for awhile. She had her feed and a 2 hour nap.
Soon we went home. Unfortunately, we didn't stay at home long, but we showed Emilie our house, her room, Taylor's room etc. Then we went to Grandma's for supper. At Grandma's she started running a fever and was ill for most of last week with a strep in her trach.
We left North Battleford at 10pm and arrived in S'toon at 11:30pm where we got her ready for bed.
It was an awesome day and I thank God that she didn't get sick on the 10th or this day never would have happened. Praise Jesus!! This is just one of many steps to getting her home. We are hoping to take her for 24 hours this weekend.
EMILIE IS BEING DEDICATED ON SUNDAY JUNE 24TH AT LAWSON HEIGHT PENTECOSTAL ASSEMBLY IN SASKATOON. You are welcome to attend.
Thanks everyone. Keep praying it works!!
Love Sherri
