Enjoying The Little Things

Well, that is what our life has been the last few months. Each day I get up, take a deep breath and thank God for all the miracles I have been blessed with this year. I was really in a slump about the year and everything my family has had to endure. But, I have decided to take a different look at things, and reflect on the miracles of the year. Each morning I remind myself how lucky I am, how blessed I am. Each day I give my boys hugs and kisses and remind them how much I love them.

This is truly a year of miracles... and just think the year is only half over!

Boo is doing fabulous and continues to amaze me with his smile each and every day.

God Bless

Rock Steady

Yep, that is what I say. Boo is doing simply fabulous. Other than a little face clawing, all is good. It is great to see how attentive he has been, and how happy and comfortable he is. It makes me think about how much his tummy was probably bothering him last year. This is the best, demeanor wise that I have seen him in a long time. We continue to pray each day for the blessing we have received over the last several months. If you would have asked me in January what life would have looked like now, I would never haven imagined it would be this perfect.

So, we are truly enjoying uneventfulness on our end. Hayden, interesting enough has been talking a lot about Hunter and asking a lot of questions. Some of the questions, I have to say are pretty tough to answer. It amazes me what he thinks about and how much he really "gets it." He is truly a loving and compassionate young man, or should I say almost 1st grader. That is crazy in itself.

Then there is Harrison, AKA Brutus. He is having fun trying mom and dad and giving us that naughty "Stink Eye." It is just amazing how much he has matured over the last few months.

This weekend mom and dad are heading away without the boys, the first time being away from Boo since everything has happened. I am a little nervous, but know he is in good hands with his wonderful Nurses. The other boys will be hanging out with family.

Hope this finds everyone well. God Bless

Stud Muffin

Yep, you guessed it... I am talking about Boolicious! Just wanted to share... Hunter wore his speaking valve all day yesterday!!! What a guy, he had a lot to talk about that is for sure. Just when I am amazed, he amazes me even more. So, boo is doing fabulous. He has been spiking a temp here and there but we are pretty convinced its because he is teething. I know, go figure. We are just watching things. In the big picture, he is doing a fabulous job getting back in to his routine.

Hope all is well on your end of the world. God Bless

Figures

So, I think Mr. Hunter is playing with me. The phone rang Friday afternoon. Boo was a little crackly and wheezing. His nurse Angie took him to the Dr. and guess what.... double pneumonia. Well, hopefully we caught this soon enough that he turns the corner fast. I tell you, it feels like if it isn't one thing it is another these days. I just have to remember, in the big picture its not so bad.

Otherwise, hoping for an uneventful day tomorrow.

Please keep boo in your thoughts and prayers. God Bless

Awesome!

I just don't even know what else to say. Hunter is doing AWESOME!! We are officially back to our self, other than being a little more tired. Unless we are really tired, or I am guessing if we get a cold, O2 is no longer needed. Hunter's surgical J has healed very nice. Yesterday boo had such a fantastic day, he was in four point for 45 minutes , according to his nurse he didn't really like it but he did it. He was all smiles when you talked to him yesterday, it was just wonderful!!

Last night I sat back and thought about the last 4 months. Wow, what a roller coaster. I have always known how lucky I was to have my boys, all 4 of them. : ) But wow! Hunter has taught us so many things, love, patience, hope, faith... just to name a few. He reminds us that sometimes you just have to believe. I will never forget how strong all my boys were through the last few months. How strong my husband was for being a single parent for 8 1\2 weeks. How strong and understanding Hayden was for going with the flow of things, and for Mr. Harrison adjusting as well as he did to mom not being around. Well, and then my boo, my true miracle. You continue to prove to everyone that miracles do happen. You continue to bless so many people and warm so many hearts.

So we continue to remember how blessed we are. We continue to remember, that Miracles do happen : ) God Bless
