An encouraging verse sent by a friend...Psalm 73:26 "My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever."

Doctor's appt.

Today we had a double doctor's appt. It was Lyndsey's 4-year well-check and a follow-up appt. for Ethan (from the pneumonia/ear infections).
Lyndsey is doing great. She is 39 pounds and 42 inches tall (just tall enough for some of the Disney rides!). That translates to 90-95% in height and 70-90% for weight. She can do things with her hands that are beyond "normal" for her age group, and she peed in a cup! She needed 3 shots and did SUPERBLY! We prayed about it twice last night and once this morning, but I have to say that I was floored with her calmness throughout the whole process. She didn't even whimper! I couldn't believe it (especially since she's still quite tired from yesterday and our last shot experience was horrific - I had even begged Bob to bring her to this dr. appt.)! We are very excited about this major "accomplishment" for Lyndsey, how she saw God take care of her needs and help her.
Ethan is much better from the pneumonia - clear lungs. He still has fluid in 1 ear, so we'll return to the doctor's at the end of May, just to make sure that it goes away. Both kids still have a junky cough, but the dr. says it will eventually go away. This stuff hangs on pretty good.
By the way, Anderson also had a major accomplishment today - his first school concert. He did not want to do it, but he did such a good job singing with the other kids. He did not look like he enjoyed it (reminded me SO much of Jason when he used to have to sing), but he survived. 8) He was very energetic afterwards, so it didn't drain him too much! We were especially happy that Grammie C was able to come too...so special!
