While most of you are lamenting about getting your taxes done on time, April 15th will be a special day for my sister's family and I. On this day last year, after spending 7 months in the NICU, my niece Chloe was able to go home.
For those just joining in, my sister went into labor 4 months too early and popped out my niece. She was 1 1/2 lbs and 11 3/4 inches. That's not a typo. This is how she looked.
I don't think she was supposed to make it. It was tenuous for months. She spent 7 months in the NICU and had all sorts of complications. Finally, after many delays, she was able to come home on this day last year. She's a fighter and has beaten a lot of odds to be in this world. The world better watch out!
How can you say "No" to that face? I know I can't. Mad love to my baby girl Chloe, her big brother Maximus, my bro-in-law Bob and my amazing sister who is stronger than anyone I know.
