Child Dedication


Today we dedicated Mia at church. It was such a sweet time for us. She got all dressed up for the occasion in a new dress with tights and shoes...that was the first time she's ever worn shoes! She didn't like them too much.

It was so nice to see so many people who have continually prayed for our little girl. Thank you so much!

Mia also got weighed today and she is definitely beefing up for Tuesday...she is now 16 pounds 10 ounces. :)

Some things to pray for tomorrow and Tuesday...tomorrow we go down to LA and she has to have her blood drawn one last time before surgery, pray that it would be quick and easy, that they would get it the first try.

Tuesday is her surgery and we don't have a time yet, but it will probably be like all other pediatric surgeries...in the morning, so I'm sure we'll have to check in around 6am and they'll end up taking her around 8am...we will try to update the blog as much as possible on Tuesday to keep y'all informed.

- Pray for the surgeon and team that everything would go smoothly without any complications.
- Pray for easy IV access, she's always a hard poke.
- Pray that there would be no surprises in surgery.
- Pray for wisdom on all of those in the room with her.
- Pray for an easy time on and off the bypass machine...pray that her heart would start when the time comes for it.


We are at peace and trust God completely through all of this. God has been so gracious to our little girl and we are thankful.
