Today marks 4 years

Four years ago today, my baby, at just 7 weeks old, had open heart surgery.  The surgery was performed by Dr. V at Johns Hopkins.  Looking back, so many things fell perfectly into place that I know it is only by God's grace that his surgery was performed on August 30th.  We were scheduled for surgery at the end of September, but he was under weight (only 7 lbs 3 oz) and failing to thrive.  I was a wreck.  It had been just less than 2 years since I had lost my first son.  Seeing my newborn son struggling to eat and stay awake broke my heart. 

 

 

Today, he is a happy, healthy, amazing 4 year old.

 

We love you Paxton
