Simple Faith

If Liam can have this same faith that he portrayed as an angel in the Nativity Scene...

then maybe he'll believe this bear can be 'fixed' by Santa's Elves....

poor, tattered, 3.5 year old Blue Bear has seen his days...been thru many washes and sicknesses and long nights clutched in the arms of a boy....

packaging him up for the long hall to the North Pole...

I've arranged for the Post Man to pick him up tomorrow and Liam will hand him over. Then its up to 'believing' that he will come back on Christmas morning!  I think it might be enough! We shall see.

brave boy...

This little man got his tonsils out on Monday last week.  It's been up and down since; but mostly up.  He's done really well considering.  A couple of bad mornings though when he ran a low-grade fever and complained that his "mouth hurt".  I can't wait to have my happy go-lucky Liam back!  BUT -NO MORE SNORING!~ yeah!  Here he is in the waiting room giving me a 'thumbs up' for surgery.

The staff at Ogden Regional was so great.  They gave him a new bear and kitty stuffed animal (before going in for surgery) which he has not let go of since ...and a goodie bag of coloring books and activities afterwards and a new blanket to take home. 

He was only in the Hospital for 2 hours following surgery. Big change from the overnight stay that used to be the 'norm'.  Daddy came by to see him...



And so did Grandma Sharon - with a present! Thanks Mom.  Liam felt oodles of love during this not-so-fun time.  My question is ...his voice has changed, definitely a high-pitched tone; am I to assume this is permanent?  One of Ruby's little friends has this same squeaky voice..wondering if he's had his tonsils removed also.
