The entire experience was incredible. This little baby I think has gone through more in one week than I ever have in my 25 years of life. Watching this sweet baby struggle after the surgery was the hardest thing for me! I'm sure he won't remember it, but I believe it definitely has already begun to build his character. He is a tough boy :) He's also pretty patient and submissive. I can already tell how determined of a person he'll be. I believe even babies can have faith and he definitely exercised great faith during those few hard days. He's already my little hero!
You sure do have a cutie on your hands! I'm so happy that he is finally home (even though I'm just now commenting on this a week later...). Congrats!
