Home Sweet Home

It is hard to believe but after 69 days we finally have our entire family at home. Reece Gregory Nykamp was released from the hospital at 5:30pm today. We are extremely thankful to each and everyone of our friends and family that have been praying for us and supporting us in so many ways. I do not know how we would have gotten through this adventure without each and everyone of you. But most important I thank God for his faithfulness.

    AMEN!! I can only imagine the smile on your face and the sigh of relief once you walked into the house and sat down with your 2 precious boys. I am so excited to get to hold Reece again and get updated pics of the boys together. Praying that the adjustment goes smoothly and Reece feels the comforts of home.

    Praise and Thanks to our God who does immeasurably more than we could ever ask or imagine. So you got your Mothers Day present one day late Sue, but what a great one. We'll keep praying for lower counts and all the adjustments to life at home for little Reece. Love & Prayers,Tami Poll

    I just couldn't be any more excited for the two most deserving people I know! God has surely blessed you with HIS presence for those 69 days! I do have to say that.... a little birdie called me at exactly 5:02pm tonight to tell me that you would be homebound at 5:30pm! Gotta LOVE those little birdies huh? Love you guys TONS!!!!! Can't wait to hold the little goober in my arms!

    Sue, I thought of you last night as one of my little guys woke me up at 3:30 and just smiled with a vision of you sitting in a rocking chair with Reece in your arms for a middle of the night feeding. So glad the Nykamp's are all under one roof. God is good all the time. Thanks for sharing your journey and continued prayers,Missy Sterenberg and family
