Daddy Doing the Dirty Work

I thought I would post this picture for all of those in my family that think I don't do diapers. I think we sometimes take for granted the little things, even the blessings of changing a diaper. I am learning more and more how very special each moment is. Most of the time we spend our lives living in the past, thinking, "If I had only..." or living in the future, thinking, "Maybe I could..." We spend very little time living in the precious gift of the here and now. Someone said that is why it is called the "present."

Michael is still fighting hard. They continue to turn down the ventilator and he has started getting some of "Momma's Best" through a feeding tube and seems to be tolerating it very well.

We are reaching a point now where we will be having to make some very hard decisions on treatments for Michael. His heart condition is very severe and as he gets bigger will probably start experiencing congestive heart failure. We ask that everyone will continue to pray for Michael and pray for us that God would give us the wisdom to make the right decisions regarding Michael's treatments.
