THIS GIRL. I thought I would give a quick update on Lydia. She is 8 mo old now! How?! The last month has been amazing to watch as she has transitioned out of healing after surgery into developing and thriving. She eats MUCH better—it is a miracle to us! Ever increasing amounts and in a reasonable amount of time! 🙏🏻 And she’s gaining weight. We can’t even say how amazing it is to be on this side of that Everest. What a huge blessing. Her little personality keeps coming out and we LOVE her cheerful soul! I feel like we have watched this child be born multiple times and each time is more amazing than the last. ❤️ We had a pacemaker check this week and things look good there. We also started the Early Intervention program which gives her access to a variety of different therapies as she needs them. Her evaluation this week went really really well! She really is a wonder to me. They say that motherhood is to live with your heart always walking around outside of your body. So true for every child. There has been deep pain and anxiety and trauma and fear, but there have also been miracles, triumphs, angels and grace, and sacred savored joys. What a gift of life she is to us. ❤️ #misslydiefaith #heartwarrior #theluckyfew
