It's hard to believe we have been home now over a month! Every day Grace is more secure in her new family. It has been a joy to watch her experience many firsts that most babies have seen by her age. She is stronger on her feet and walking well. She loves to be rocked to sleep too. We went to Chicago for her Shriner's appointment in March to evaluate her cleft palate. It went very well and I was very impressed with the entire facility & staff. We have a date scheduled for her surgery of May 18th. Not soon enough. She is making many sounds, but words will be tough until her palate is repaired. They boys adore her and I am constantly reminding her she is NOT queen of the castle or she will be terribly spoiled. Thanks to everyone for their continued prayers. We are so blessed.
