Cuddles with Nonnie
We are home! I’ll bet you thought that the post title was referring to the girl!
The girl is getting plenty of Nonnie cuddles, but she’s having to share with the grand puppy.
It’s working! We are starting to see more smiles.
Still Singing
The girl’s surgery was a success! They removed both tonsils and adenoids. She’s such a trooper! We told her about the surgery this morning, and she took the news well. She just asked for a new toy car in exchange for any “pokeys”…which to the girl means needles or enemas. We agreed to her terms!
The surgery went without a hitch, and she has been in a pretty good mood considering.
I did get the stink eye a few times
She’s been hanging out with Nonnie and Poppie – we are so glad they are here. Especially since Poppie brought the chocolate pudding and Nonnie sings with the girl. They make songs out of anything they hear…beeping monitors and all.
Now everyone is gone. We read 4 chapters of Stuart Little and she finally fell asleep
Good Night! Sleep Tight, Brave Girl!
Peace!!!
Merry Christmas!
With Christmas comes the promise of Love, Joy and Peace! We pray you find your rest in that promise.
whoosh! what a season!
It seems that the Christmas season flies by every year. The excitement grabs us and spins us along until we sit in a pile of wrapping paper. This year I’m astounded that this is the girl’s 4th Christmas! Time has really flown…

She’s so big, and being a big girl means we’ve been busy with more activities than we could have imagined!
Meeting Santa Mike
…and a friend of his
Singing in a preschool program
Christmas strings concert:
(That’s my girl on the big screen)
We’ve made cookies!
We’ve made ornaments for our Jesse Tree
We’ve welcomed Nonnie and Poppie
Now we will try to slow it all down and celebrate Emmanuel (God is certainly with us).
Beautiful Music
Today was the big Christmas Concert. The girl loved dressing up in her fancy dress!
The girl joined many of her friends as they played beautiful music for family and friends. Some of the highlights.
Very Excited!
Lots of love here!
Lining up to go on stage
“Up on the rooftop”
She even made the big screen!
Honestly the best music I heard today was “Mommy, I love you!” Beautiful music indeed.
A season of excitement
The girl is so excited about Christmas! She has to redecorate the tree daily, and is loving our Jesse Tree celebration each night!
She’s so joyful, and we are happy that she’s doing so well!
The girl’s mom has 3 more weeks before a break. We have one visit to Children’s this week to see the urologist. I think that the medicine is making a difference. I’m not sure what that means…but thankful that the medicine helps with the accidents.
I’m writing this post as I listen to our little freight train in the other room. We think that losing the tonsils will help a lot!!! When she actually gets a good nights sleep, she’s going to be unstoppable. We will have to Wait until the day after Christmas for that sleep (surgery 12/26). She’s not going to sleep until then anyway. She’s just too excited!!!
