We had a great day yesterday and celebrated her birthday by doing some of our favorite things!
We went to crumbs to get birthday cupcakes!
Virginia played in the leaves :)
She dug into her cupcake!
Ginny posed with her giraffe
And last night we drove up to New Haven to deliver lots of books for the babies, cupcakes for the nurses and to see Ginny's nighttime primary nurse Amy. Amy and our other primaries cared for Virginia with so much knowledge, skill and love; something that we are forever grateful for. Their skilled hands, warm hearts, and gentle presence healed all of us during those 4 months.
