The nurse that has been taking care of Christian explained everything--and I mean everything--in detail about the surgery. We are anxious, excited, and ready to get this all over with so he can start feeling better. She said to expect about 10 days worth of pain, but I know our God is one that gives speedy recoveries. No worries there. No worries anywhere actually. We are simply at peace with the whole process.
The surgery is scheduled for this Thursday (the 6th) sometime around 9am. We'll update and let everyone know how he's feeling by that evening.
As for today being Election Day, I am choosing not to bury my nose in the television, tune in to the radio every 5 minutes, or get weighed down with how serious this day really is for our country. Either way, history will be made. We plan on watching the results as a family this evening, but we remember this:
"We know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose for them. " Romans 8:28

Hi! Glad you are at peace with Christian's surgery. It's great to be in the Father's hands! I can't believe Caroline is 2 (sigh) it goes by to fast. Look forward to the reports of Christian's healing.
Romans 8:28 is one of my favs....even though I am a news junkie...I haven't been watching TV either today.
I am excited to see God's work in action in the recovery with Christian. :-)))

I am praying that Christian sores through this with no problems! One more thing about my surgery...the pain after was NOTHING compared to the pain I had before the surgery! I pray for that - no pain...only relief! Keep us posted! As far as the election...I am right there with you - no TV or radio for me!! Love you guys! I miss you!
I know that things will go good with the surgery. I had my tonsils taken out about a year ago so make sure that he drinks lots and lots I think that makes a big differnce and popcicles are great also. keep us posted on how things go I will be praying for all of you.
