Today in Verbs

Today I walked through the doors of a hospital that became my address for 36 days, nearly 3 years ago…

Today I scrubbed my hands with the same soap smell that I associate my newborn preemies with…

Today I travelled down the same hallway to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit that became my 4 sons’ address for the first 3-5 weeks of their lives.

Today I embraced a fellow quad mom and felt an instant connection and friendship…

Today I looked at Maddox, Jack, Emma, and Parker with wonder and awe at their tiny, yet perfect little bodies…

Today I witnessed many families who face a very difficult road ahead…

Today I visited with nurses and sonographers who cared for me through 32 weeks of a high-risk pregnancy…

Today I hugged the man who safely delivered 4 miracles one February Day…

Today as I remember the uncertain days of the NICU, I am once again overwhelmed with gratefulness this season for 4 gifts that cannot be purchased, packaged, or wrapped.
