A warm welcome to the Rosseter family!  Your story was so touching...

After reading so many NICU stories, I realize how very fortunate we have 
been with Melissa (11/30/95, 32 weeks).  I can only give the credit to 
God and those many, many people world-wide who were praying for her 
prior to her birth.  She has been free from so many of the complications 
you all have been through -- the only ailment she has had since coming 
home has been a cold, resulting in an ear infection.

A question, and a rather selfish one at that :-).  I am desperately 
longing for an uninterrupted night's sleep.  At what point did all of 
your children sleep through the night?  My son was about 8-9 weeks, but 
was also born at term, weighing 9# 8 oz.  Melissa is now 8 weeks old, 
corrected, so I'm anticipating that she may begin at any time.  Much to 
my dissapointment, I've had several people tell me lately that it's more 
dependent on weight -- "babies don't sleep through until they reach 12 
pounds or so."  Any opinions?

Any updates on how little Devin in S. Africa is doing?

Hugs to all the little munchkins {{{{}}}} --
