Today marks six months since this little guy, baby W, came to live at COTP. He was so fragile when he first came home. His jaundiced skin hung off of his thin arms and legs. He had the tell-tale cough of pertussis, which is scary in any baby, but particularly in a four pound malnourished baby without any reserves. His treatment regimen consisted of antibiotics, a feeding tube, oxygen to help him through the rough coughing spells, and a whole lot of love. There were a few rough nights when I didn't know if that would be enough. But praise God it was, and little W is now not so little any more! He has the most infectious giggle, the cutest dimples, and the way he coos is almost too cute to handle. This boy brings so much joy to those around him and I am so grateful for the opportunity to take care of him during this season of his life.
