Home Sweet Home! Little Molly Einck and her parents, Mike & Melissa have returned to their Minnesota home after being in Ann Arbor, Michigan for about six weeks.  Mom & Dad were given lots of instructions on how to care for Molly’s needs on their own and they passed the test!! Big sister Mari is so happy to get her baby sister, Mommy, and Daddy back home so they can be a family once again! The Eincks are very appreciative of all the prayers and support they have been given.  They know everyone is anxious to meet Molly, but visits will be limited. They need to be very careful of viruses.  Your understanding will help keep Molly healthy while she continues to heal from her heart surgery.
