Good night

After my last post, we had a ton of wonderful visitors! Our pastors came up to visit. Past Jon had been here all day, and Pastor Wade drove from the Dallas area to be here. What a blessing! Then it was time for the grandparents to come and say good night. And thank you Northern Krajcas for the great picture frame! So sweet!

During our time with all our visitors, I was able to hold Benjamin. Yay! Then Curtis got a turn, but Benjamin wanted Mommy, or rather, Benjamin wanted to eat! So I was able to feed him. After we got him and all his cords (he has an arterial IV, two regular IVs, the drain in his head, and two different monitors) in bed he was sweet and even made a few little smiles for us.

So, enjoy the smile! Good night from the PICU!

So great to see such a sweet smile! Praying everyone gets some good sleep and he feels better every day and doesn't swell or bruise too badly. He looks great!

Kierstyn,

I haven't gotten around to leaving comments but I have been following your blog more regularly of late and you all have been in my prayers. I keep getting all choked up when I read about what you're going through. I know God doesn't give "imagined grace" so I try not to let myself get carried away imagining how I would handle what you are going through.

I'm sure the testimony of God's faithfulness to you, as well as the faith He has given you in the midst of this is a blessing and encouragement to many.

It's a privilege to share in this with you through prayer.

With Affection,
Elizabeth

I agree with Lindsey. He does look great! What a cutie patootie :). We pray y'all are getting lots of rest and that Benjamin will recover quickly! We love Y'all!
