So here is where I am tonight... Bowden had surgery today.  He had a salivary gland and a lymphnoid removed.  There was a stone in the gland and it was getting infected.  He had the spend the night.  I did not get to stay.  Only one person could stay.  I am 8 months pregnant, Keith and the nurses thought it would be better for me to go home.  I had to leave my baby there.  Very sad about that.

I also got a call from our pediatrician scheduling her test for kidney reflux two weeks from now.  My Itty Bitty has been struggling UTIs for a while now.

I am going to be giving birth in about 8 weeks.  I am big and uncomfortable and my hormones are running high.

Spending any amount of time at Arkansas Children's hospital fills me with an enourmous amount of gratitude that the problems my children are so small.  I am grateful to a God who provides for us in so many ways.  We have loving family.  We have INCREDIBLE friends who help with children, bring us chocolate shakes and pray without ceasing. 

Why then was I just crying as I left the hospital tonight?  I guess it goes back to those hormones.

This is where I am tonight.  Resting in His grace.  Trusting in His plan for our family.  Grateful for all He provides for us!
