Double Dose

In the past, when Stanton gets pneumonia, it’s usually just in one lung. Well, this unfortunate go around shows fluid in both lungs! Poor little guy just can’t catch a break….or his breath! He just recovered from pneumonia two and half weeks ago; I hadn’t even packed his nebulizer back in the closet. As he grows, at least he is becoming more compliant with his breathing treatments, which used to be all out torture sessions. Today he came up with the idea that his monkey, Mitzi, should have a breathing treatment too.


 This is how we’ve spent every two hours since Saturday night.


In days as long as these, I really love the message found in Romans 8:18, “ I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us.”

Hmmmmmm…..what will Stanton become? Will we one day look back and see this season as just a blur in his life? How will Stanton make a difference in the lives of others? What glory will be revealed within him? When I consider all the amazing possibilities before him, I get excited and know with confidence that we will endure this time and Stanton will indeed grow into all that he is to be.
