1 year anniversary!!! Big news!



Well, this last year has been quite a rollercoaster with Connor. He's growing and learning by leaps and bounds, and his head looks just AMAZING!!!

As I look back throughout the year, I'm amazed at how God has shown up. 1 year ago, we were faced with surgery for our 6 month old baby. Though it was hard, God guided us throughout the whole thing. Whereas most folks would be a wreck, we were solid on God's word. He guided us to the right procedure, the best surgeon, and all in the timeline that was able to get the best procedure done. I believe that everything happens for a reason, and God does everything to show his own glory. We were given peace by the Prince of Peace. And I just pray that our story can touch others, so that they can know Jesus.

Well, now for the big news! We found out yesterday - NO MORE HELMET!!!! Yay! We have graduated to yearly checkups, and that is GREAT! We have worn that road between here and San Antonio. I'm suprised there's blacktop left! :)




With Dr Jimenez (the surgeon) left, and Darren (the helmet specialist) right in his new black helmet, and I'm gonna put that helmet in a box with some dates.
