1st PICU visit

James and I would like to thank EVERYONE who lifted us up with thoughts and prayers while Addy was in the PICU!  IT was definitely a roller coaster ride and we couldn't have gotten through it without you all.  James, Addy and I have been so lucky for the past 2 years that’s she has never been sick but we knew one day that lucky streak would catch up with us and it did.  When we took Addy into the ER on April 3 never in our wildest imagination did we think we’d go through the many scary things Addy faced but through our wonderful God he held our hands and stood by our side and because of him we were able to bring our little Princess home!  As soon as we got home yesterday afternoon I took Addy to her room and laid her in her bed…oh how I wish I had brought my camera!  As soon as I laid her down the BIGGEST smile came over her face and I heard a sigh.  She was so happy to be home…it was such a very sweet moment!  All Addy wanted to do yesterday was lay in her bed and watch her movies, she had no desire to leave her bed...haha!  Yesterday I read the Easter Story to her from her Bible and she laid their so peacefully and just listened.  She loves when James and I read stories to her from the Bible which just melts my heart!  James and I would like to thank the PICU Staff so taking such good care of Addy and spoiling her even more!  If we ever have to return we know that we can go and feel good about the care that Addy will receive! 

I wish James and I could have gotten pictures with ALL the PICU staff that took care of Addy but here are a few we got the last two days we were there!
