"Life is hard, but life is simple. Get on the path and never, ever give up. You never give up. You just keep on going. You don't quit, and you will make it.
There is only one way to happiness and fulfillment. Jesus Christ is the Way. Every other way, any other way, whatever other way is foolisheness."
-Elder Lawrence E. Corbridge

Lookie lookie

Ruby has finally come home! We are happy to announce that our dreams have come true. After a long prenancy and 6 weeks in the hospital we finally get to take our Ruby home! We are so blessed to have such a perfect little being in our family. She is doing very well. She will need some vitamins at home for a while but that's about it. Today Ruby is 28 days old, 5 pounds 13 ounces and thriving. She has such a personality. We still have to be a little careful of infection but it's easy to wash hands. Again we cannot thank enough our family, friends and our ward for the love, support, prayers, cleaning, meals, hanging out and playing games in the hospital, treats, movies, phone calls, and everything else that has been done to help us get this little girl home safe. How blessed we are. Thank you, Thank You, THANK YOU!
