Hurray, she's home!!!

Taylor was released from the hospital this morning - March 8. She moved out of the PICU Friday evening and Jason stayed with her all through the weekend. He was determined to make sure she was taking all of her feeds by bottle so we could be released. He was succussful!!! Her cardiologist and surgeon saw her today and said it was time to go!!! Wow!!! I had no idea until I arrived at Fairfax this morning after church with Cam and Em in tow and all my stuff to stay tonight and on into the week if needed. Jason surprised us with the thrilling news. He is now going to get some well-deserved and needed rest.

We have a follow up appointment with her pediatrician and cardiologist later this week. Our main job now is to make sure she eats well, gains weight, and stays healthy!!! The doctors are planning to schedule surgery #2 for the end of June.

Again, many thanks for your continued prayers and support. Please keep Taylor and our family in your prayers as we move on to the next phase of this process. Emileigh was singing "It is a great day to serve the Lord" on our way home from the hospital this afternoon. I told her that I couldn't agree more!. God has truly worked in our lives over the past two weeks and I know he will continue to hold Taylor in his hands.

Love to all of you and your families.
