Old Soul

Today reminded me how much Mary Graham has been through in her little life, she is an old soul. She doesn't even hesitate anymore walking into CHOP, tells all the nurses and doctors, "I'm so brave" and pretty much could do all her vitals, height, weight, etc on her own, she's got it down and says that everything "tickles." 
She has been through so many surgeries and pain, yet she is full of joy! So much joy! And I'm reminded of the joy and sorrow we face each day, how they are intertwined, how the joy is always brighter after facing the sorrow. And it reminds me mostly of the cross, where Christ endured the pain and sorrow so we could experience the ultimate joy.

Thank you for praying today. It was long, but went well. Just lots of waiting and talking with doctors and nurses, preop stuff. They were glad to see her progress and development. 

After walking back to the RMH we rested some, then walked around town a little bit and ate at Bobby's burger palace, had to introduce Julie to the best burger and fries :). We are already heading to bed. 

MG will have her MRI and CT first thing in the morning. Have to be there at 6:30 eastern, yikes! Should last a couple hours. Please pray for no complications and for God to keep her safe during the procedure. 


We are always so grateful for your prayers!
