right about now. {updated}

we just laid these

two munchkins down

for a nap.

now this little girl and i are off

to chicago.

and hoping [praying] for

good answers.

Update:  Thank you so much for your love &

prayers.  I read your comments as we waited and

I was overcome with gratitude.

Ellie got her stitches from surgery out.

{She didn't even flinch.}

They are still determining how long

we will continue her IV medications, but 

no matter what, it is manageable.  

We are thankful for that.

We are thankful for that, for great doctors,

for accessible hospitals, for medical insurance 

and for the fact that I can easily do her medications at home.

So, 1 more week or 4 more months....

we will remain thankful.
