Grateful

I just wanted to brag for a moment on my sweet husband, Jay. I am so grateful for him in my life. The same guy that "forgot" to get my number the day we met was the same guy that proposed just a short 8 months later. He's the same guy who never went to a choir concert in his life until me. (Since then, he's been to more rehearsals, musicals, concerts, and musical venues than he ever anticipated.) He's the same guy who rode on many a school bus...be it a field trip to CiCi's pizza or whatever concert we were headed to.  He's the same person that has always stood up to me and other people when something is not right. He's the same guy that made me buy 3 pregnancy tests and take them ALL the day we found out I was pregnant with Zoe. He's the same man who laid there right beside me and wept with me when we received the disturbing news of Zoe's diagnosis.  The same guy who promised me "you're stuck with me" when we were told the divorce rate of special needs parents was 80%.  The same person who has literally stuck with me through the ups and downs, the highs and lows, and the good and the bad. And he has loved me unconditionally throughout my crazy career transformations. He's the same guy who makes the effort to get home early enough for dinner time with Zoe so that she can eat dinner with her whole family...just to turn around and go back to work after her bath.  Again, I just wanted to brag on him and give thanks FOR him. I couldn't have gone through the last 6 years without him.

We are also grateful for you. All of you who pray for us, love on our sweet Zoe, and help out when we need a break.

We need your thoughts and prayers...Zoe is undergoing an MRI early Monday morning.  Standard follow up procedure from her laminectomy back in September.  Unfortunately (but actually fortunately), we've always discovered the need for another surgery when we have an MRI.  We are hoping for a good (aka boring) report Monday. Love you all and have a fantastic Sunday!
