Dermoid Skull Tumor...gone :-)

The sight of my kids in this little tiger hospital gown, is becoming all too familiar.  

see...

But truly we are overjoyed that this surgery is behind us and that this dermoid has been removed and will hopefully never return! 

Yet another opportunity for James and I to trust God and see him work in the lives of our children.

We are so thankful.

Every sweet text and email sent throughout day has meant so much to us.  

Thank you everyone.

 

It was amazing to see that, not only did God protect little Juddy during the procedure and recovery, but he worked out so many details throughout he day.

From the Dr. taking Judson in 1 hour earlier than scheduled, to the nurse gently carrying him into the operating room (rather than wheeling him in his hospital bed.) 

God met us and took care of those potentially stressful moments.

 We even had a friend show up with Starbucks and Prayers.  

Nothin better than that :-)

Unlike sissy, Judson woke up from surgery happy as ever.

He stuck in his binky and was ready to roll after a little nap.

He has this lovely blue stripe down the back of his head.  

It's soap and should keep the area clean.

You can kind of see the little patch where they had to shave his head and make the incision.

Ick.

At the moment he is taking his 4th nap of the day.

Aww, sweet baby, we are so thankful that you are home safe and one dermoid lighter!

This hymn was really comforting to me throughout this tough week.  

His love is so great...

Oh the deep, deep love of Jesus
Vast, unmeasured, boundless, free
Rolling as a mighty ocean
In its fullness over me
Underneath me, all around me
Is the current of Your love
Leading onward, leading homeward
To Your glorious rest above

CHORUS
Oh the deep, deep love
All I need and trust
Is the deep, deep love of Jesus

Oh the deep, deep love of Jesus
Spread His praise from shore to shore
How He came to pay our ransom
Through the saving cross He bore
How He watches o’er His loved ones
Those He died to make His own
How for them He’s interceding
Pleading now before the throne

Oh the deep, deep love of Jesus
Far surpassing all the rest
It’s an ocean full of blessing
In the midst of every test
Oh the deep, deep love of Jesus
Mighty Savior, precious Friend
You will bring us home to glory
Where Your love will never end

CHORUS
Oh the deep, deep love
All I need and trust
Is the deep, deep love of Jesus
