Ruby Tuesday Recap!
















As you can see by this photo, Ruby Mei got to visit her Daddy today! It was a very special first birthday because we were all together! I think Ruby would tell you that she loved her first bites of frosting and white cake! We figured that out when she literally put her face in her cupcake! Priceless!


We got to check off one in the good day column for Jeff overall today! Not only did seeing and holding his daughters make him happy, he got rid of his catheter, and found out he definitley does not have West Nile. Lymes is still at the top of the list, but the DNA test on it is still outstanding. We are hoping he will be home by the end of the week.



Thanks for your continued prayers for healing! I am off to bed. This girl is exhausted!




Blessings,


Diana

So glad you were all able to be together to celebrate Ruby's Birthday! Love the photos with her face in the cupcake. She's so cute! Jeff looks GREAT. I'm sure seeing all his girls helped. Many many blessings for a speedy recovery and a discharge from the hospital by the end of the week.

You all look wonderful--especially Jeff. He looks so good for having been so sick.

I am so happy you were together for Ruby's first birthday; that's what matters most.

I pray there will be more good days than bad from here on out.

Lots of love,
Lisa

Wonderful to read this, especially about ruling out West Nile. Jeff looks great in the photos, and the big smiles on the girls' faces just melt my heart. Ruby and the cupcake is beyond adorable!!!

What a sweet birthday. Jeff looks great! Hope he feels as good as he looks and hope he'll be home soon! Ruling out West Nile is definitely an answer to prayer!

Ditto everyone else on the cute cupcake picture.

Yes, I must agree with everyone here---You all look beautiful despite what you have been going through. I love Ruby's dress! She looks like "her Rubiness"
