Another Shot

Tomorrow Joshua starts Mother's Day Out again. If you remember, we started him in MDO back in September. We were so excited then, but unfortunately, the fall cold season brought on several hospitals stays and we needed to take him out of the King's Kids program. Now that we have been 8 weeks without a fever or hospital stay, Joshua's teachers are excited to have him back and Joshua is more than excited to be going back. 

Our doctor has been very encouraging that this is a good choice for Joshua. She wants for him to experience life as normal as much as possible. But normal is a bit scary, at least for mom and dad. For us, it feels like him going back is deciding it is OK to spend more time in the hospital. Even though all signs point to Joshua being a healthier boy than he was 5 months ago, it is still an anxious time for us. So, please pray for the anxiety to diminish with Joshua's excitement and anticipation and that Joshua would continue to be in good health.
