How sweet it is to be Home

Yep, we came home today. What a relief to be back in our own home - it just feels so wonderful to be here. Chris was released with everything looking good. The car ride home went very well, very little traffic so it was fast.

When Chris came from the car into the house he was able to lift his leg for the first time, we praise you Lord. It is surprising how such a simple thing can give us such joy. Especially realizing that without the Lords provision Chris could very well have come home without his leg. It reminds me of when your baby first walks.

We are tired, and looking forward to sleeping on our own beds (although I stayed at my in-laws house which was a huge blessing, John slept at the hospital all week), taking a long hot shower and overall just being home.
thanks again for all the prayers, phone calls, cards, etc... they have blessed us so much.

Dear Ones...
How relieved we were to learn that you had arrived home safely and that the trip was not too much of an ordeal for Chris and you! Thanks for the call to alleviate our anxiety.
We hope that your first night at home has been a relaxing and peaceful one and that a good night's sleep will be had by all..
So glad that we could at least provide a couple of beds for you during this time.
We send our love and wishes for a continued and successful recovery..
M.S. and G.
