Since, you're all probably bored of Baby Jack by now, I thought I should post about something different. ;-D
This video called The Gratitude Campaign demonstrates a unique way to show gratitude to those who serve. It is quick and simple to avoid awkwardness and in situations when you're unable to approach someone. The man who started the campaign felt that the usual ASL sign might be misinterpreted, so it instead uses this sign, originating in 18th century France, which fully translated means "thank you from the bottom of my heart."
If you haven't already heard of this, please take the time to watch this short video. Also, please keep our Uncle N in your prayers as he is deployed in Afganhistan.

For any of you who haven't lost interest in the newest addition to our family and are eager for an update: Baby and Mom continue to do well. She doesn't get much sleep at night, of course, but she usually gets a nap during the day. All things considered, this seems to be her best recovery. Jack is a precious little thing who still spends most of his time sleeping and "smiles" often. Usually he only cries when he's hungry; then he wants food NOW!
I would also like to give a BIG thank-you to all of those women who have generously brought us meals these past two weeks. We have been so blessed by how kind and thoughtful you have all been, and the meals have been simply wonderful! (Plus, it makes planning and preparing meals much easier for us girls! ;-D)
