Hey Jude

I never thought that in a few short hours, my heart could be so wrapped up with love for such a small little person. I never thought that in a few short hours, I could hurt so much for someone elses pain. I never thoguht that in a few short hours, I could love a person so completely!

My nephew (and Godson) was born on August 18th, at 4:06am, and He weighed 8 pounds, 11 ounces, such a big boy! His name is Jude David Emmett Schalin.. Unfortunately when he was born, he had to be airlifted to Royal Alexandra hospital in Edmonton, because he's got an infection. Right now he's still in the hospital, and probably will be for the next couple of weeks. It's easy for a full grown person to deal with infection, but a tiny, newborn baby? not all by himself. It's hard to see him in an incubator with tubes and wires all over his tiny body, but knowing that he's getting better and stronger by the day is just wonderful. He looks exactly like my brother.. I'm already so proud of this little man, it's not even funny.. Pictures will come when he's feeling a little better.
