Thanks by the Letters: P

Pain Meds:

When Max needed them... they were there and they kept him comfortable during some very difficult times.

Preschool:

Thanks goodness Ella had her friends and extended family at Colonial to keep her sane and in some sort of routine for much of the year!

Parents' Room:

It was a great escape from Max's room... just to grab coffee or get on the Internet and even better to curl up on the couch with Troy while we waited during Max's many surgeries. This was our only escape.

Prayers:

Words cannot express how grateful we are for all the prayers that were sent up for Max and for us. God is good. He got us through this and gave us this special little angel to love.

Papa:

He's kind of a pain in the butt sometimes... and I know he reads this, but that's okay. My Dad is still the best Papa our kids could ask for. He loves them so much and he loved Max from the minute he was born. Thanks Papa for the constant calls and emails. Although they drove us nuts sometimes... we knew you cared and were thinking about Max every minute. Thanks for the black market formula search, the cases of formula you sent, the cases of diapers that showed up on the porch, and the generous check . (just knowing that we had a cushion and didn't have to worry every day about bills and bouncing checks and child care, and meals when life was so crazy in those first days, was great!) We love you Papa!
