Dear NICU Nurse...

I came across this blog post and I felt I had to re-post here.  I want to remember the words this blogger wrote.  They come from my heart as well.

I first read this last night, September 13, 2013.  It just happened to be exactly six and a half years, to the night, since we first met our girl's NICU team.

Here is the link:

Please read.  It will touch your heart, even if you've never 
experienced the NICU firsthand.


And here's a current picture of our sweet Rissa Roo, at six and 
a half years old and in the 1st grade.  
In case anyone out there is still reading and we're not friends 
on Facebook.  She's growing up too fast.
