Easter Weekend

April 11, 2009 Adam brought Torrie up to visit her mommy today. It was so good to be able to see her. She curled up in a little ball at the foot of my bed and just hung out with me. One of the nice housekeepers, Nipa, had brought some kitty treats for her; so she enjoyed them. I am still very sore today, but trying to keep my outlook positive so I can have a good day. Adam stayed with me until lunchtime and then he went back to get some things done at the house. My mother and father in law were back there working while he was visiting. Many thanks to them. Tomorrow is Easter. I wish I could go to church, but this year it isn't possible. Adam has been reading me the Easter story, though--which has been nice to get to share it with him. Only a few more days now. We're in the home stretch.

April 12, 2009

Happy Easter!!! I woke up early today and was determined to have a good day. I spoke to Adam before he went into church and then got a shower, dressed in a bright color and even put make up on. I haven't put make up on for over 6 wks--since I was admitted. So, I'm going to make the best of the day. It looks wonderful outside, bright and sunny.

Adam and his parents got here around noon. I gave Adam his little "hospital gift shop Easter basket" I made for him--I think he was surprised. Then, we ate a great meal. It was nice to get to spend the day with family and Adam, of course. Jim and Debbie took off after lunch, but Adam stayed with me and we took a cat nap. Then, this afternoon, he took me upstairs for another soak in the bathtubs on labor and delivery. My back is really acting up and causing me a lot of pain. This is one of the few reliefs I get. My determination from the first part of the day had waned a little by the end of the day, but overall--it was a great day.

Tomorrow my doctor will be back and I will only have 4 more days to go. YEAH!!!! Can't wait to meet these babies.
