Doctors

I have seen enough doctors for one day.
This morning I took Isaac to the Ear Nose and Throat doctor and scheduled surgery for tubes for this Thursday at 6:45 am. Hopefully this will help his ears. Please pray for him and Cliff and I during this time. I am somewhat worried about him having surgery, but I'm am confident that God will take care of him!
While fixing dinner I heard the most awful sound that a mother could ever hear. Arthur has fallen and had gotten hurt. He landed on his chin from about four foot up on a ladder I guess trying to climb a tree. He let us try to use butterfly bandages to put the cut back together but we were not successful, so a trip to the ER was neccessary. They were able to get us right in and used glue to put it back together. That was great because I am not sure that either one of us could have handled stitches. I will not post a picture because it looks aweful.
Only one and a half hours until midnight so maybe I will not see another doctor today, but with a housefull of boys you never know!!

Amazing children

Children are amazing!
Isaac will be one on November 9, and he is doing things by leaps and bounds. His newest trick besides climbing stairs is walking to whatever he wants instead of crawling. He takes about 7-10 steps at a time. Will try to catch on video.
Stephen will be six on October 7. In the past year he has become a big brother, had a broken arm, and strated kindergarten. What a year for Stephen! Oh, he wants to be called Stephen instead of Stevie---he is growing up he says.
Arthur will be eight on December 29. That is awhile away. He has a mohaw again, but we would expect no less during football season.
Kelton will be nine on October 29. He is getting smarter everyday---sometimes he thinks he is smarter than mom and dad especially where homework is concerned. It is amazing to think how much he has accomplished in the past nine years.
Just a reminder to myself and others God gave us all of our boys and they are all AMAZING!!
