The Kratzers stayed at the Burgins' house last night and then headed to Greensboro around noon today. The trip was uneventful, and Samuel slept all the way. Four of our neighbors stopped by to coo and hug us, and Cindy Holt brought a delicious meal. (The bar has been set!) Samuel slept most of day; in fact, he napped through two feedings. I was thankful because his exhaustion helped me get some much-needed rest.
Our air conditioner isn't working, and Stan spent the day running around trying to figure out how to get the house cooled off. It's almost 11 PM, and the house is pretty comfortable. Tomorrow's bottles are washed, Stan has crashed, Samuel is asleep in Grammy's arms, and Poppy is headed up to bed. I'm going to change a diaper and lie down beside my son's bassinet and thank God for the most beautiful exhaustion I've ever felt.
How precious, Angie!! God is so very good!! So very happy for you and Stan!! Many prayers have been offered up for this day... and many more will be given in thanks!!!!! Sending you hugs!! Savor every moment... they go by fast!!!
