"It's is very scary especially with a little bitty person going into surgery for his heart," she said. "There's been a couple of nights that I cried, but he made it through."

"It's hard to leave your babies up here, but when they're being taken care of and people are doing such special things for them, it makes it a little bit easier," Hannah Mitchell said.
It's why volunteers are trying to bring joy to the parents of these preemies - hoping to make their first-ever holiday celebration as a new family, a memorable one.
"I love it," Lakeshia Brunson said. "She's like a baby doll. I'm so happy. I can't stop smiling."
The costumes uplifted the spirits of parents as the little ones grow, spread their butterfly wings, and take off.
