Yesterday our little family made another trip to the pediatric cardiologist(our 4th since he was born) to have a check on Sam's heart condition. The doctor said that everything continues to look great at this time. Yeah!!! Thank you Jesus. After the EKG and an echocardiogram he felt that the blockage in the aortic valve was mild with only minimal leakage from the surgery. He told us to continue treating him like a normal baby. He was pleased with how happy and healthy he is. We don't have to go back for 6 months, which is great news because it always seems to take about 2 hours for a visit and Sam doesn't like to hold still for the tests they do. Anyway, we are so thankful.
As we sat in the waiting room John and I both just felt so blessed to have Sam. Although he has his own problem, he has such a normal lifestyle right now. It was hard to look at all the kids and families sitting there waiting to see the heart doctors. Just walking the halls of children's hospital puts a new perspective on everything. We praised God for our wonderful son and pray that his condition never worsens or if God willing, it disappears! Thanks for all your continued support to our family!

That is such great news!!
That IS great news! I'm so glad that Samuel continues to thrive. He is such a happy, smiley boy that I don't think anyone would imagine that he has any "condition" whatsoever. I know you're thankful for Samuel, but he will also be very thankful to you and John for being such fantastic parents.
That is such a blessing! I am happy that Samuel is doing so well. He is so cute!
Thanks for the comment on Kinsey!! Yes, very crazy how the small towns and small rural schools are very similiar!
