Happy to be Home

We made the long trip home yesterday.  Aubrey did great on the plane rides (Houston to Minneapolis to Anchorage.)  We are so glad to be home.  We were surprised when we landed in a late spring blizzard!  We got about 18 inches of snow yesterday.  So, unfortunately, the heart run was postponed until further notice.  We really had a great time in Texas with Brian's parents.  It was really relaxing and we got lots of quality time as a family.  The more we reflect on all that has gone on over the past two weeks, the more we realize how many things God really orchestrated together for us.  We feel closer to Him and closer to our friends and family and closer to each other than ever before.  We know we most likely have some tough hurdles to cross in the future, but our faith is even greater that God really will carry us through them.  We still have a lot of questions and concerns for our little Aubrey.  We need wisdom about which doctor appointments we need to travel to Texas for, how to tell Aubrey about her heart when the time comes, and more specifically what we should avoid to keep her safe and healthy.  Most of the blood tests are to hopefully rule out some of the metabolic diseases that would be worst scenarios than what we have talked about already.  We will keep praying for her health to remain stable and not to get worse.

It's encouraging to hear about how God is working in your family and that you are seeking Him continually. I will continue to pray for Aubrey and your journey as a family.
