hardest thing ever

i can honestly say that one of the hardest things that i have ever done was to leave our baby, Gemma at the hospital. She is doing well, except for jaundice. they have to keep her there another night to keep her under lights. eric and i have not gotten any sleep since i was admitted to the hospital on monday. we decided that the best thing for Gemma and for us was to leave, get a good nights sleep and, Lord willing, bring her home with us tomorrow. i just keep telling myself that the God has already gotten her through so much and i know that the nurses will take care of her while we are not there. we had aready decided this morning that we should leave her at the hospital...i didn't however plan on it being so difficult. once we dropped her off with the nurses that's when i realized how much i would miss my little girl this night.
eric and i are so excited about this exciting new time in our lives and are trusting God to help us raise and train Gemma Jaye in the way that he would have us to raise her. we know that this is best for her...and we are learning more and more to trust the One who gave her to us!!
