Prayers please...

I’m such a bad blogger! I love following blogs but I am just not good at keeping mine updated. Sometimes I’m almost done with a project and I think “if I were a true blogger I would have taken pictures every step of the way to blog about it”! Ahhh! Oh well, I will try harder…


Levi is going for his 6th or 7th bronchoscope tomorrow… I can’t remember how many he’s had. This is the first one that the actual surgeon will do though. Dr Wooten. We met him two months ago and really liked him, he is very confident and that is always good when he may be doing a MAJOR airway reconstructive surgery on your baby boy. Of course, like always, we appreciate your prayers. It’s going to be a long day tomorrow since we couldn’t get an appointment for the early morning like we usually do. It’s not until 3:45! He must stot all solid foods at 5am… and all clear liquids by 11:45. Thankfully my wonderful in laws will take Jesse in the morning so that Levi doesn’t have to be around anyone eating. I’m thinking that once the clear liquids stop, I’ll take him to the library to hopefully distract him.


Yesterday I was reading about Jonathan, King Saul’s son. He knew that God could accomplish great things and have victory against all odds, victory in a war with only a few men against many. If HE chose to… I feel that way, God can… if this is the time that He has chosen.


The boys have been doing so good! They are amazing… they spent an entire week with my in-laws while I was in Mexico and Brian was working like crazy to get ready for Easter Sunday. I had a wonderful time, I got to share at the Women’s Retreat and see a lot of my loved ones. While I was gone, the boys got a jump start to potty training, or should I say a very late start! Again, wonderful in-laws!!! They are doing really well with it and I’m starting to feel like I have potty trained boys… the things they say… I wish I could share!


Jesse talks non-stop, from the moment he is awake till the moment I make him go to bed. He asks millions of questions about everything. I heard once that it is important to give answers to kids like this, it makes them smarter when they are older. I try! It’s really funny and great, exhausting at times but I wouldn’t trade it for anything! He is a sweet and loving little boy and just so funny! Levi asks questions too, only he actually wants to understand the answer. And the whole child like faith is not working with him! He wants to understand and if it doesn’t make sense to him, he gets upset! For instance, we were talking about how Jesus can now live in our hearts(because of Easter, there have been many questions about ‘baby Jesus’). Well, when I told Levi this he quickly said ‘no He can’t!’ I tried to explain and told him that He lived in my heart, he then said ‘where? Let me see him!’ I tried to explain a little better and he said, ‘my food is inside me, Jesus doesn’t fit!’


I am so blessed…
