{recovery in the hospital...continued}

I realize there are many pictures that are quite similar. 
For some reason I cannot get myself to delete any of them.  I am not quite sure why, but I seem to be attached to every one of them. 
So here is our sweet baby girl FINALLY acting more like herself...Oh happy day!



{Daddy reading books}











{sitting up!!!}









{a little of her funny personality came out...she thought it was so funny to put her legs straight up in the air}



I was so happy when she ate for the first time in almost three days...so here are four:) pictures of her eating cheerios...I was delighted!!!





I hope I never take for granted the small miracles in a child's life.  The sweet smiles, sitting up, walking, running, laughing, drinking, eating cheerios, and being a kid.  I know there are parents who have children where each developmental milestone is truly a miracle.  My heart aches with them and also rejoices in all of the small stepping stones that most of us take for granted.  It really was not that long until Eliza was able to sit up just a little (it was hard for her) and start to walk around a little...just two days.  It seemed like forever.  Perspective is everything.
