Emma Home for the 1st Time

This is a grand day in the Thurston/Nelson families as little Emma Lyn Nelson came home today to be with her Mom and Dad. She was given a big green light by the Doctors and Nurses from the Timpanogos Regional Medical Center and promptly loaded into her brand new car seat, then whisked off to home for the very first time. Jacey & Thomas called us to break the news. It's hard to believe that just one week ago we were deeply concerned for Jacey's health having just fought for her life after enduring a most horrific ordeal. We are witnesses to the "tender mercies" of our Heavenly Father and his attending angels. The dark and lonely hours of last Monday and Tuesday have turned into bright and glorious days for all who were so close to this birth. Jacey doesn't remember any real part of the emergency, nor does she have any recollection of the 38 hours of sleep that followed the delivery. It is a marvelous thing to have her not really know what was happening. Nevertheless, we rejoice in the wonder and power of family and friends who called on the Heavens for intervention. The Lord loves his children and blesses them with his tender protective care. Faith proceeds the miracle...indeed we have witnessed it first hand.
