One year ago today. . .

I was freaking out a little bit : ) By this time last year, we'd driven from Arcadia to Omaha, from the Med Center to Lakeside Hospital, and back to the Med Center, and by 3:30 pm they were pumping me full of drugs while I was tipped on my head. In the meantime many of you were helping us bombard heaven with prayers that this little kiddo would do okay. I remember that I started feeling better at about 9 pm, thank goodness, with a dose of steroids on board, only for my water to break shortly thereafter. Oh. My. Goodness.

How good it feels today to scoop up my little mister as he's crawling across the floor babbling "mamamama" and grinning with all two of his teeth. Thank you thank you for your prayers, your patience, and your support. We have been so blessed by this precious little boy. He's taught us so very much about ourselves, about life, and about the loving nature of the Good Lord (oh yeah, we're still trying to figure out this parenting thing, too).

Hope you've had a wonderful holiday weekend. Short post today, as I'm trying to study. This is a big week--Big First Birthday on Saturday, followed by boards on Tuesday, the 13th.
