First Family Photo
This pic was taken this morning. We get to hold him every day now and it's a pure joy. However, it's also a little nerve-wracking holding him with all the wires and tubes knowing that he could de-sat at any moment.
Interesting how Sophia is keeping her distance, huh? This was her first time to see me holding Ira and she wasn't too sure about it. Click on the picture and go to my Flickr account to see a pic of her tickling Ira's feet. It's the first time she willingly touched Ira.

Ira had a pretty hard night last night and is having a hard time resting today. He's really having to work extra hard with the CPAP. His little body just isn't used to doing this much work on its own.

I cannot express how happy I am for you. Although I know the road ahead is long, these past few days seem to have brought the hope that we have all prayed for. Ira is so lucky to have such a wonderful family, and I have been lucky to know of Ira's strength these past few weeks.
What a beautiful family!! I am so glad to see you all together. Praise God for His grace and mercy. I love you all so much. Kaki
That is a beautiful picture of all of you together. You are in our thoughts and prayers. Love Kelley and Leigh Hays
Now that is one good-lookin' family right there! Thank God that Ira is doing so well and we'll keep on praying until your whole family is home together. :)
The Lord bless and keep you. The lord make his face to shine upon you...and give you peace!
What a great looking bunch of warriors you all are!
Still sending out uber prayer vibes from the other side of the ocean.

What a lovely family picture. Praise God for Ira's continual good recovery, and for your amazing strength and faith that have become inspirations to many.
WOW!!! We are not even Sophia and Ira's grandparents and we think they are BEAUTIFUL!!!! (y'all too!!)
Joe and Laura-what a beautiful family you are. I followed your advice and looked at the other pics around this one. The one of Joe talking to Sophia (or just watching her) while she's tickling Ira's little feet is great. I loved the one over Joe's shoulder when he's looking over his son. And, then I laughed out loud when I saw Sophia dolled up looking totally cool. Thanks for these picture memories you shared.
