On the Road to Recovery!

First of all I want to thank everyone that sent up prayers for our little guy. They were surly felt. Last Wednesday Emanuiel's nose surgery lasted a little over four hours. Afterwards we were able to see him. The first thing he said was, "I want to go home" thankfully we were able to after bout 45 minutes in recovery. Poor little fellow was pretty sick the rest of the day but started feeling much better around 9:30. What's so amazing is that he never complained, not even once during all of this. The hardest part has been trying to keep this active little guy from overdoing it. The day after his surgery I caught him jumping on his bed and trying to ride his bike and scooter. I was exhausted by the end of the day from running interference for him! His nose continues to heal but there is still limited activity and absolutely no swimming for two more weeks! I am running out of quiet things for the two little ones to do. So in a few minutes we are going to be off to the library to sign up for the summer reading program. New books should keep him interested for a least a little while I hope! Below is a picture of him right before his surgery.



As you can see below by Sunday Emanuiel was feeling well enough to lead the family in a little after dinner concert! Gotta love a son-in-law who graciously plays a pink guitar! Way to go Greg!






In our house we are very thankful for continued healing of Emanuiel this week!



Until next time...

Jeremiah 33:6 NIV
