Littlebugs big day started out at 0630 with Daddy n Mommy a little worried and anxious, but still upbeat for a positive outcome because we know our little guy is a fighter!!!
And as always Dad n Mom put our "heart's" and "our verse" in Connor's little hope chest so it would be with him in the operating room tucked close by his side....and we told Herman to open Littlebugs eyes so he could get a glimpse of it if he got scared.
....and then Daddy and Mommy had quite a prayer time with Littlebug. We read lots of encouraging Bible verses and told him he needed to be really strong and courageous for this day and to be a "fighter"and not to be afraid and on and on we went.......until finally.....
.....Littlebug looked up and opened his eyes as if to say..... "OK...OK Mom and Dad, I know ya love me but can we just get on with this patch job and get this ticker of mine all fixed up...I'm tired of waitin!!!"......we just looked at each other and said....I guess its time....
...so at 0833, off we all went... down the long sterile hallways that we have walked before....but with more trepidation this time.....we said goodbye and once again told him to be strong and that Mommy and Daddy will not be far and not to be afraid. The doors closed to the operating room and for a moment time stood still... we hugged and we cried.....in anxious wonder....
....the next few hours were a reflection in our life and hearts of our littlebug and how much we love him........we wondered and waited and prayed.....
.....and prayed we did...every hour on the hour...with our hospital prayer team as well as our pray warriors out there in bloggerland...way to go!!!!!!.....because at about 1415 we got the news that.....
.....Littlebug had done great!!!!!....and to quote the words of his surgeon, Dr. Permutt...Connor's sucesseful surgery was "beyond his wildest dreams"....needless to say Mommy and Daddy were ecstatic...our hearts were lifted high and we thanked the Lord for letting us keep our littlebug!....close to "our" hearts!
Lovebug hugs.....Dad Mom and "all fixed up Littlebug"

Thanks again you 2 for being so diligent with your posting. I can imagine how exhausted you must be and how thrilled you are that this day is behind you. We still can not get over what a fighter this little guy is and how awesome it is too see the Lord use his life over and over. Not only is Connor a missionary but his mommy and daddy are too. We love you guys and look forward to more praise reports real soon. Get some good rest and take care of little bugs brother or sister or his twins........LOL
Love
