Christmas Day

Well this has been quite an eventful Christmas to say the least. I am typing this from my phone on my makeshift bed at Largo Regional Medical Center. Let's start from the beginning.

Like any child, Liam woke up early and was ready for Christmas. He successfully woke everyone up with some squealing and grunting. As Dylans family watched in person, my parents watched on ichat as Liam opened his presents. Well he really could care less about him opening them but enjoyed playing with them. Then we called and woke up my bro and SIL and told them to iChat too. This was a highlight. My whole family ichatting together. Liam went down for a nap right after that and we continued the unwrapping of gifts. My husband was very creative in his wrapping this year.

Things were looking great. We had a great time opening gifts hanging out with the fam and were starting to get ready for a Christmas dinner on the beach with Dylans extended fam. Then Dylan started feeling ill. Afters while it started getting serious so he went to the ER with his parents. At first they thought it was appendicitis but he had cat scan and nothing showed up. So after hours of waiting and two shots of morphine he finally was able to rest. His family has a history with stomach issues so they are keeping him overnight with the hopes to have a GI specialist see him tomorrow.

So that's where we are right now. And as if this couldn't get better his vents make a lot if noise when the heat kicks in so we have to turn the heat up high, allow the room to get really warm and then turn it off so we can get a little sleep before it turns on again. This is why I'm up at 1:22 am.

As I think of what a bummer this is and how inconvenient it is to us, I am reminded of the huge inconvenience Christ went through to become one of us.

Happy Incarnation!
