Thank you, Ryan's workplace

Ryan and I went to his company Christmas party on Saturday night and had wonderful time. We saw a lot of people we hadn't seen in a long time. I will have to post the official photo later. The picture people posed us and I swear it looks like a Prom picture. It is hysterical. We will not be using it as our Christmas card this year, sorry folks.

The party was awesome. Ryan and I look forward to it each year, and were not disappointed. I just wanted to say thank you to the employees and their families. So many of you came up to us to get a report on Elsie, to say hang in there, and to offer prayer. We really appreciate every one's kind words and prayers. The prayers are working, please continue. We thank God everyday that Ryan is fortunate enough to work for such a caring company. Thank you!

Elsie is on the back end of a cycle of congestion so maybe the next few days will be good. We hope so. Fancy and Papa Jim are coming to visit this weekend, so she needs to be good! :) Elsie continues to nurse well. She knows what she needs to be doing (suck, swallow, breathe) but when her nose is so congested she cannot breathe, it makes the process very frustrating for her. It is encouraging that she is able to latch on, suck for a few minutes, and not have any episodes. As she continues to grow we hope she has more good days.

Love Y'all,
Ellen

  2. Ellen and Ryan and Elsie Lou,
    Our prayers continue to go with you. People here are praying, too. We are no longer in HSV, AR. We are in Birmingham awaiting Rachel and John's visit.
    Love, the Sullivans
