7 days until we meet you - Tuesday August 25th

Dear Baby Ethan,

One week from now we get to meet you! I am so excited.  I am praying that you will be in good shape by then.  It is encouraging that you were doing a good job practicing breathing during our ultrasound yesterday.

I am down to my last four work days before maternity leave begins, and I get to focus on you for a bit.  Your daddy, Auntie Dainy, Uppuchen, and Rose came to spend a bit of time with me tonight.

So far we have spent 41 days in the hospital.  I'm so excited that we are on the home stretch, just 8 days until we meet you! I am praying you stay in me that long, so you can be healthy and strong.   Dear Lord, please help Ethan's lungs, digestive tract, GI tract, bowels, eyes, ears, and all systems to be in great working order.  Please help him to not have asthma and help pumping and breast feeding to go well.  Saint Blaise, Saint Rose of Lima, Saint Antony please pray for my baby Ethan that he would stay inside until September 1st.

Thank you Lord that we have made it this far, we made it to 34 weeks!  Please be with my baby Ethan and help him to be strong and healthy.  Please help him to be able to go home with us on Friday September 4th.  I know he will have to be in the NICU for at least two days for monitoring.  Please help all of us to get able to go to church together on September 6th.

Your birthday will likely be September 1st!  Just 8 days!

Love you,

Mommy
