Catherine Marie is here!


Quick update before we go back to the hospital: Our niece, Catherine Marie, was born last night around 10:15, just a little bit ahead of schedule. Luckily we caught an earlier flight too, and we arrived soon after she was born. She is doing well! When she was born she was nice and pink, and she even cried a little bit. She is still very sick, but she's got two tiny lungs and lots of friends and family supporting her and praying for her. Hopefully they'll do surgery to put everything where it needs to be in one week. We're so thankful to be here. We even got to glimpse at her through a little window. She is precious! Thanks so much for all of your prayers and support. Keep it coming!

Hey Bop! Thanks so much for the update! Tom and I have so much admiration for y'alls family...all of you traveling up there to be with them during this time is really awesome. If you get a chance, give Catherine a kiss for us! (Also, ask Katie and Donnie if you can update their blog with this news, I think they have a lot of bloggers praying for them who don't actually know them.)
