I know that it takes time away from your family to do this for us but you just have no idea how much it means to us. I love to know what to pray for for each little angel and that does include Issac. I am standing in agreement with each and every prayer that they all will go home healthy. Prayers for Seth and his lungs and just know God will be by his side through this. You and Carrie take care of each other and once again, your blog is such a blessing to us. <br />Julie - TexasAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2194119873694032441.post-46871539580676670962012-09-28T12:10:04.421-05:002012-09-28T12:10:04.421-05:00I say David looks like Isaac!!

I'm not a teacher, unless you count volunteering in the public schools and homeschooling our own kids for a number of years, but I say, don't let him be bored! G&T classes are better than nothing, but it depends on what they are. In our schools, it was merely a one day a week pull-out program. So one day a week the kids weren't bored -- that's still wrong. I'd go with the third grade option (and also G&T if appropriate) -- except, of course, that he just made all these new friends and would have to go through the social strife of leaving them behind and starting over in a new grade. Educational decisions are rarely clear or easy!Linda Wightmanhttp://sursumcorda.salemsattic.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2194119873694032441.post-437855086877003242012-09-28T08:29:27.024-05:002012-09-28T08:29:27.024-05:00I read it to the end and rejoice with you at all t...I read it to the end and rejoice with you at all the good news.

Lord, we are lifting up precious Seth and asking for special healing of his lungs, and that he won't need any further treatment for the PDA. We praise you that Seth has no other major issues, and ask that You please touch his lungs with Your healing mercies and give him the strength to improve. All of these sweet babes are precious miracles and we pray that Your Will be that they would all continue to improve and come home quickly to the loving arms of their family, Lord. Thank you that Carrie and Gavin are doing well, please give them the strength and support they will need when these little ones do come home. And, Lord, help them to make good decisions regarding Isaac and his schooling, and we thank you again that he is doing well. Please be with all those involved in the quints' care, that only the right treatment and decisions will be made. We praise You and love You, Lord. Amen.

They told us the same thing but praise God neither of them had to be traeched and he just came home with standby oxygen and a pulse ox for me to keep an eye on it. Keep on standing by faith, many it seems are standing with you. Wonderful that he has no other issues. My Ian was like that and once the lungs started filling in he has never had any residual effects other than requiring a little more sleep, but that might jut be him.Mona Bakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03573537999742243406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2194119873694032441.post-91074674662294883242012-09-28T00:03:02.904-05:002012-09-28T00:03:02.904-05:00Love to read the updates...thank you for sharing y...Love to read the updates...thank you for sharing your journey. So fun to see how the babies have grown and reached many milestones. Also precious to see you all loving the babies and getting to hold and cuddle them. Will continue to hold the babies up in my prayers and Seth especially at this time for his lungs. His picture is precious, such a sweet little gift.

I got a laugh out of your kiddie olympics post. You are most certainly right about celebrating all the little milestones. It helps get you through the roller coaster.<br /><br />Next week we have to take our NICU grad to a follow up appointment at Children's. I'm looking forward to going back and being able to see my favorite doctor and some of her primary nurses. <br /><br />I'm glad you enjoyed the hats. Thanks for posting the pics of the boys wearing them. I hope the pumpkin ones will fit size wise for them next month. You continue to be in my thoughts and prayers.<br /><br />SarahAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
