Quick update



Without going into all the details, I am excited to say the ball seems to be rolling for little Levi. We would love your prayers as we prepare for an important meeting on Monday with his entire "care team." We have several questions that need to be answered before we take next steps, and we will sit down together to hash out the details regarding his discharge plan.

PRAISES-
- Levi has done so much better off the NG tube and only keeping his intestinal feeds going (TP tube). 
- Levi just about weighs enough for a G tube surgery!
- A different GI doctor randomly stopped by yesterday and agreed with our plan to rid him of any nasal or oral tubes and move forward with a G tube and stomach wrap!
- Levi had a successful circumcision yesterday!
- Levi passed his hearing test! But he had some fluid in his ears, so a follow-up visit will happen in the next month.
- We've had several great visits with Levi!
- Silas has been such a ball of joy!

PRAYERS-
- Questions answered during Monday's meeting.
- Decisions for other muscular tests during G tube placement.
- The right doctors and nurses on hand during upcoming procedures.
- The perfect timing for procedures and discharge dates.
- Miracles with regard to Levi's ability to eat by mouth in the future.
- Levi's continued progress with his hand and feet. 
- Sweet family time as we wait through final hospital stays. 
- Continued trust in God for what it looks like to care for Levi at home.
- Please pray for the McMath family preparing their son for brain surgery tomorrow!


We are truly truly blessed.

Break from the blog

As March begins, often we hope for a great thaw in our land. Now Georgia certainly doesn't have any icy soil that needs warming, but our yearning for more light and fresh newness to keep us from numbing appears universal. I have written on this blog for ten years now. From singleness to newlywed to mama of four sickly, but now active, growing boys. It's been a place for me to purge, process, and pray through some of life's biggest changes and challenges. It's also helped me keep distant family and friends informed, but I've felt for some time it's come to an appropriate place for pause. I know that I have many more mountains and valleys to travel if the Lord wills it, and many more personal lessons that I'd love to share and reread to my kiddos one day (and if anyone wants to organize and compile this little landscape into a memoir, please be my guest), but I do not ever want to assume a posture of numbness as it relates to our regular routines. I re...

A little color

School has officially started for me, and my teachable teenagers will be booming into my room in two days! I can't wait to shape those minds of our future! :)   However, my summer projects are a great reminder of the joyful color and peace I had for two months. :) I found this great idea on Pinterest and thought it would add a great accent color to any room in my home! I still have to put it all together, but here's what the finished product will look like with a little more subtle turquoise: I have it all painted and ready to be assembled!  More pics upon completion! (may be quite a while though now that school is in session... hope you weren't holding your breath.) ~CC
