Update

Emma once again had a great night last night.  She is such a little fighter.  She has come off of her one medicine completely and that is another milestone for her.  Once she gets her chest tube out and switches to the conventional ventilator Daddy and I will get to hold her and we can't wait.  Although we want to hold her so bad, we are waiting patiently so we know she is healthy and where she needs to be first.  When we were back visiting her this morning she was moving around a bit and peeking her eyes at us.  The overhead lights were on and she doesn't like the lights at all so she was just peeking at us for brief amounts of time.  It is amazing to see how much she is fighting to get better.  We still have a lot more milestones to meet on her road to recovery before she heads home, but we are on day 10 in the NICU and it is thought she will be here for a month.  We tried to upload video clips last night, but it appears that we have used up all the video clip space.  I plan on looking into that problem more this afternoon and find a solution to the problem.  Keep up your prayers!  As you can see God is Great and the power of prayer is amazing - our little Emma is proof of that.
