Another hurdle

Tomorrow morning, Aubrey will face a small hurdle in this race she's running. Her cardiologists have asked to do a heart catheterization in order to investigate what has looked, in recent echocardiograms, like increasing pressure in her pulmonary artery. It is a very minor procedure in the grand scheme of things, but the outcome could bear significantly on how soon she would need major heart surgery.

We prayed for her yesterday in church and I humbly ask that if she comes to mind, you pray with me for her tomorrow, as well.


She has been counting down the days, but not in fear. On the contrary, she is making a special, "just her" trip with Daddy and has been beyond excited as she looks forward to it! In turn, I am beyond blessed by this amazing man who has helped carry her (and me) through each day of her life.

I just love her scrunched-up-with-happiness nose in this picture as her daddy arrived home and then whisked her off on this adventure a bit ago!



I'll do my best to update on the results whenever we get them.

      Thank you for praying. God is SO GOOD! Please feel free to pass on any part of Aubrey's story that would encourage and strengthen others.

    I don't remember how but, somehow through the miracle of the "interwebs", I was alerted to pray for Aubrey soon after she was born. Since then, I have enjoyed following your blog and watching your sweet family grow.

    It is a testament to your parenting and God's faithfulness in her little life that she eagerly anticipates these events rather than dreading or fearing them. HE is good!

    May he fill each of you with the peace that only HE can give throughout today! I will be looking forward to a good report and to hearing about Aubrey's fabulous adventure! :-)
