Homecoming

Stephanie and I will sit down with our oldest daughter, Nevaeh, to discuss her thoughts and feelings about her baby sister coming home after being in the NICU for 89 days. Due to Covid restrictions, Stephanie and I were the only ones who were allowed in the hospital, so nobody got to meet her until she got home. Nevaeh was 10 at the time, and has a unique perspective.
