After a looooooooong siege in the hospital with our Scottie boy, he is back home and doing well....except for somewhere along the way he learned to fine tune his whining! He is happy-except when he is whining-and looking good after losing 17 pounds! (What a way to lose weight, Buddy.)We'll omit all of the gruesome details here in the blog . Just know that we had a close call with Scott, but Heavenly Father decided that we still needed to learn some things from Him. We are so grateful that he is still with us, and grateful for the powerful prayers that were said in his behalf. It has helped us to see just how precious he is to us and to appreciate being with him each and every day. Carl & I truly feel blessed to have him in our lives, and though he presents challenges to us and sacrifices on our part, he brings so much happiness and purpose into our lives. Couldn't love you more, Bud!
We owe a lot of thanks to family and friends for all of their support and caring for Scott and for us during this time. Especially to Michele do we owe so much...her constant care and support of Scott and her concern for our needs, too. She would not leave his side and said many prayers in his behalf. We love you, Michele! And we know that Anna and Jenny also said many prayers in his behalf. We know that you wanted to be here, girls, but we felt of your presence and support.
So, now we go forward with grateful hearts and a determination to enjoy our times together even more and to be thankful for the opportunity we have to be an eternal family.

Scottie did give us quite the scare, I am so grateful he is doing better. It was a little to close for comfort and am reminded how much I love Scottie and what an influence he is in my life. I am glad that my kids get the chance to know their uncle a little longer! Love you Scottie!
