Happy Gavin = Happy Momma!


Gavin has been quite sick this week. I turn into one big anxiety ball when Gavin gets sick. I hate to see him feeling miserable! Plus, once you've spent time in the E.R. or in the hospital with your child on numerous occasions for just having the common cold, you tend to think the worst and dread what may come if he continues to worsen.

I've been so thankful and amazed at how healthy he's been this last year. But, he made up for it this week! With this illness he was starting to go downhill with his breathing and I was very worried he was heading towards hospitalization! (He shared his illness with me, so I have an idea how he felt.....Rotten.....I was struggling to breathe, so with his lungs already compromised by lung disease, it must have felt worse for him.) Thankfully, he turned the corner quickly, and is once again a happy, smiley boy!

See for yourself!


I love when my sweet boy is feeling well and happy! "This is the day the Lord has made; we will rejoice and be glad in it." Psalm 118:24

I'm the exact same way! Reagan dictates my mood. If Reagan's happy, then I'm happy. I'm so glad Gavin recovered without having to go to the hospital!! Yay for happy days!!

Praise the Lord he is doing better. Hope you are over it as well....sometimes I feel like my faith goes straight down the drain when Lillian gets so sick...BUT, when I'm sane and less worried, I think its just satan trying to destroy my hope. :/ He comes like a thief in the night to steal my joy. So glad Gavin is doing better.

It's hard to not expect the worst with everything you've gone through. So glad he is back to his happy, smiley self again!

I wish the cold season was over already!!! Our poor kids get hit so hard. Really glad to hear he rebounded quickly and has stayed healthy for the most part. I am a nervous wreck with the sound of a sneeze, cough, etc. we need no more sickness in this house!

Hugs to you guys!
