A Simply Amazing Day!!

MomEmme-7959blog

Do not ever under-estimate the power of prayer. Especially when it has to do with a three year old child! What I have witnessed today, only God can orchestrate... This child has three incisions in her body... They were not there this morning when she woke up.. One is on her thigh, one is on her lower back, and one is on her belly.. Not one "ouch" out of Emme Jade except for her IV board, which she has politely asked her nurses to remove every time she sees them! She has made new friends, walked the halls, and she has even cruised the floor on wheels... Simply amazing!

Yes, she is on pain meds.. She is tolerating them beautifully! (The hard stuff is on order should we need it over night.) She knows where her "owies" are, and she is happy to show them off to anyone who will listen! There will be a few dressing changes tomorrow when the surgeons are on call. I am thankful they will be doing the first round!

Overall, day one has been a gift. She is sleeping now, and hopefully it will be a peaceful night. I know tomorrow is a new day, and the pain may increase overnight. But, I give thanks for the precious day we have had with Emme Jade... God has clearly trusted us with another one of his brave and strong little girls! (Oh, and spunky too!)
