"I Am His Daughter"

So This week has been a little harder for me than most weeks...I went to my OB appointment for my 30 week check up and found out that the sists that were on baby girl's kidneys were not gone but actually more swollen than before. I now have to go to a specialist to get a second opinion. Worst case scenario-sists don't go away on their own and when Olivia is born, they will have to put a stint in her to drain the liquid, or If they stay mild, then her file will be sent to our pediatrician to take x-rays and go from there. Not too bad-could be worse-but what mom wants their babies to have hurt or pain or complication in anyway?

Then today we had to take Tavin in to the doctors because he had another asthma attack. He and Dan are currently at the Primary Children's Hospital getting breathing treatments to open up his air way. The good that came of all this: We found a pediatrician here in UT that is VERY gung-ho about getting Tavin's asthma problem under control and teaching Dan and me how to properly treat it on a daily basis so we don't have any of these episodes again. I have an appointment with him next week for us to go in and sit down with the doctor to write out a schedule/plan for Tavin. I AM SO GRATEFUL for his sincere interest and desire to help us. It has been too long going blindly into this-not knowing how to help my little red head.

And, I am not feeling like Miss America these days-with my big tummy protruding. This video was posted on facebook by a friend and it really lifted me up tonight. Despite all this, I am His daughter and he loves me-he will watch over me and make sure everything turns out how it should.
