    Every one is passed out, Sonja, Sunshine, Vera, Caitlin... I keep walking down to NICU every 10-15 minutes to make sure they are still there. And I have two fingers that feel like they were fractured from her death grip, plus she told the anatsegialogist nurse who is a guy she didn't need it "because I'm fucking harder than you".
    You show the lights that stop me turn to stone, You shine it when I'm alone. And so I tell myself that I'll be strong
    And dreaming when they're gone.

    I've been up since 04:00 yesterday if you don't count the 3 or 4 10-15 minute cat naps I've. And I'm dragging major ass, so I guess I'm already training for the next couple years. Sonja is well, and returning to her normal self, she hasn't threatened any one today. And definitely feeling better after getting some solid food and some Dunkin Donuts. Kiddos are well, one islatching like no ones business, and the other needs some encouragement.

    Sunshine finally held them, and it was amusing to watch her be so careful, and her grin from ear to ear. My dad came down with my mom, and he just sits in front of the nursery starring at them like a watch dog.

    And sorry about the pictures, it might be a few days for the next update, I'm not leaving till they come home.

    Merci bro for the update. Thinking about you all. And Dunkin is the way to go.  I am so happy that they are all well. And Sunshine is an great big sister already. I don't think you need to worry there. Take your time. Get back to us when you can. And I like your dad. Grand dad is protectives of them. I know where you get it from now. Hug Sonja for me okay. And kiss those lil feet for me.  Love you, rest when you can. Until you give more news.

    You scary sis :P
