By the time I got back at 9.30pm, he had extended his record to 2.5hrs unassisted and looked absolutely beautiful in bed (middle photo). He may need some more CPAP - maybe not?! I must admit that I was overwhelmed when the nurse asked if I would like to hold him for the first time (bottom photo)... I had tears of joy streaming down my face. It would be a struggle to put down in words what I felt tonight, for him to be crying and then settle in my arms, the only thing that comes close is like every single dream you've ever had being realised in one moment. I love you Noah, more than I already did and more than I could have ever imagined.
Rob you are such a loving husband/Daddy and you somehow manage to bring a tear to my eye so often when I read your words. Kirsty and Noah are very lucky, as you are, to have them too, hey.
ReplyDeleteWell I have to admit I feel EXTREMELY PRIVILEGED that I was able to pop into PMH and see Noah and his Ma&Pa yesterday. I was really surprised to see Kirsty stroll out of the lift unassisted... I struggled to walk for a week after both of my caesars... you are really amazing Kirsty. It did make me cry when I saw you holding Noah. His arrival was much anticipated by us all- can't imagine how it finally felt for you to have him in your arms.
Noah grows stronger by the minute it seems-keep it up little buddy!
You all look after yourselves and each other.
Anyway guys- enough from me.
Thanks again for yesterday- the image of Noah in your loving arms is etched into my mind.
With much love,
Leanne
