My Three Girls

Above: Lucy, Lindsey, and our newest, Nancy Elliot (Ellie).

On Thursday night at 8:15 pm Costa Rica time we welcomed our newest little girl to the family. We are so thrilled that she is finally here, we feel like we have been waiting forever! Lindsey was so brave to go through the whole thing. She had to be separated from me for a while, her doctors talked lot of Spanish, and she had to wait in a very cold OR. Just like she did with Lucy, she was amazing throughout the whole surgery and recovery. Somehow she manages to be one of the bravest woman I have ever met, while also being the most beautiful. I have no idea how she does it, but I am so blessed to have her.

Ellie has be great since we got here. Lindsey had to wait for a long time in the recovery room, and we couldn’t go and visit her, so it was just Ellie and I in our room for the first 2 hours of her life. I loved the special time with her, but was really missing Lins the whole time.

We’ve been home now for a day, and all is going well. Lucy is slowly learning what this new thing is in her house, and at times can be amazingly sweet and caring.

I love life with my three girls, and although it is exhausting, I couldn’t have it any other way!
