Donuts with Daddy




Jimmy joined Kendall at school the other day for "Donuts with Dads." It was also spirit day and the kids were encouraged to wear Dad's tie, hence the reason Kendall has a big orange tie around her neck in the picture.
Jimmy received a placemat that had a list of questions that Kendall answered about "Daddy" along with a special picture of the 2 of them. So sweet!

Our Winter Wonderland right here in Texas!

Pics are out of order.... the 1st one is of Jace when we brought the kids back inside. Well, he wasn't ready to come inside. Can you tell?!

Jace's Follow Up Appointment

Great news! I took Jace to his follow up cardiologist appointment today and his heart is perfectly fine! Praise God! The artery kink is straightened and his murmur has closed. The dr. did a repeat EKG and sonogram. He was fighting the dr. and ME like crazy and kept pulling off the sticky tabs and cords hooked to his chest, so the next choice was sedation. That was really tough on me but the test isn't accurate unless he is calm. So, it had to be done. We are so glad to close this chapter and never have to worry about it again.

I will tell you though... I really got a new perspective on how precious life is when you go to a place like that. You see children with serious heart defects or the nurse tells you of the day old baby she examined that was going for surgery or you hear the dr. on the phone admitting a little girl to the hospital. That's when I count my blessings that Jace's heart issue was NOTHING! I was upset b/c of Jace having to get sedated....seriously?! Then, I walked out and saw the dad of the little girl. His worry... I truly can't imagine.
