Proud Preemie Moment

[hannahsmom]

We enrolled Hannah in gymnastics camp this week. The gymnastics coach (who used to be MY coach) said he can't believe she is doing so well for being so young. He said she has talent and will be a great gymnast. He said all this before he knew about her "small" beginnings. When we got home she was wearing her cute leotard and hubby said "I never thought she would be healthy enough to do gymnastics." This brought tears to my eyes because twice the NICU docs prepared us for her death. And now look. I'm just so proud of my one pound wonder.
