Well September is almost over. It has been a hard month, one of adjustments, decisions and lots of doctor/dentist visits. But, first Lane started school. Second grade to be exact. He has had kind of a hard time adjusting to the school schedule again. But we are getting there.
Around the first week of September Lane knocked two of his front (permanent) teeth loose. He was at AWANA and they were playing a game and his mouth ran into another kids forehead. So I rushed him to the dentist at 7:30 at night. They stabilized the teeth by bonding them to the ones next to them (which is what you see in the picture which was taken after the gums had healed a bit). Now we wait.... we have been back twice now to check on their progress and to see if the nerves survive. We still don't know and it could take another couple of months to know. Poor kid.
My sister Lesha got to come visit the other weekend. It was so nice to have her here and she was really helpful. I have been having a hard time with the heart diagnosis etc. I was kind of at my wits end when she got here and it was refreshing to have her here. I am feeling a little better now but it's been an emotional roller coaster trying to figure out what's next, what medication is right etc. All this in the middle of a possible move to Alaska for Reese's job in the next 6 months. The near future is all very up in the air right now and it's getting to me. But, I have been learning a lesson in giving it all to God, praying all throughout the day and just learning to trust. It will work out one way or another and God's plan is the best plan.
Can't forget picture of my little miss... covered in a rash. Last week her whole back, tummy and face broke out. I took her to the doctor and they thought it was pretty benign. It was gone within two days. She was a cranky one though! There were a couple days when I couldn't really get anything done, she just wanted to be held. But we are over that and moving on :)
I am thankful that this month is almost over. With the exception of about 1 million doctors appointments in the next few months, we have some fun things coming up and I love the fall, even in Southern California. So here's to looking forward to what is ahead and trusting in the One who is in control.

oh! What a month. But I love it that you will trust in God. We have to remember too that fear and worry are not from Him. He will take those away.
I am praying for doctors wisdom, for your heart to be regulated, for Lane's nerves to be fine...
I am so glad Lesha came to support you, help you and visit with you!! I am excited to see you next month.
When it rains, it pours! Hopefully the rest of your fall will be low-key and relaxing! You deserve it :)
I'm sorry about your heart giving you troubles...I can only imagine the anxiety that must bring. I often wonder with Maddie how she'll handle all of this as she grows older. I really hate heart disease/CHD, I'm sure you're with me on this one.
I'm keeping you close in prayer... you're right, He is there and has gladly taken your worries and fear away, you just have to surrender them. Hard to do. Thinking of you, hang in there!
