We had a great day! We are settling back into being
home. It is hard to describe the feeling of being together as a family again.
This has been the most trying experience of our lives thus far. We have had
high points where all was going well, and low points where we didn't know if we
would ever be together again as a family. Through it all, our God has once
again proven Himself faithful. I think it is fair to say that the last few
weeks have changed us in a magnitude of ways. Life is precious and we will
always remember the One who holds our lives in His hands. My prayer is that
through our journey, those around us and those that hear our story may be drawn
to the hope we have in Christ.
Psalm 115:1
Not to us, O LORD, not to us, but to your name give glory, for the sake of your steadfast love and your faithfulness!

This little turkey has had a rough day. He is currently on a
little oxygen since his sats were low and he was a bit blue. Ezekiel also had
his blood drawn today for lab work. He was a trooper, but the nurse and I cried
a little bit. We are doing our best to simply enjoy being home, and getting use
to all the changes.
He is growing, happy, and healthy... And that is praiseworthy.
"Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable--if anything is excellent or praiseworthy--think about such things." Philippians 4:8

We had our first follow up appointments this week and
the doctors say things are going okay. We would like to see his oxygen levels
higher, but he is close to where we would like him to be. He did great with all
the tests and even tried to help with his own echocardiogram. Still no outlook
on when the next surgery is, but we have appointments set up with the
cardiologist and pediatrician every couple weeks, and an in home nurse twice a
week for now. Life is getting back to our "different new normal"
again, and for that we are thankful. Continue to pray for good oxygen levels
and that we can avoid getting sick. Thank you all again for your love and
prayers over the last month.

Behold, children are a heritage from the LORD, the fruit of the womb a reward.

Ezekiel & Eden update: They are happy and
full of giggles and smiles. Our lives are full of abundant joy.
Ephesians 3:19-21
To know the love of Christ which surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled up to all the fullness of God. Now to Him who is able to do far more abundantly beyond all that we ask or think, according to his power that works within us, to him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations forever and ever. amen.
