My sweet little Max spent the first few years of his life visiting all sorts of Doctors and specialists. He had several individualized health issues that no one seemed to be able to help with. Through much prayer, medecine, and work he has been able to grow into a healthy little boy. There are occasions, however, that these health issues come back seemingly at full force. This has been the case the past few days and this morning Ty took Max to the emergency room. He is home now and doing okay. We are hoping he will be himself again soon.
And it is Christmas Eve! And I have much reason to rejoice despite the difficulties. We have been here before with Max and I now know how to handle the problem. As I taught in my relief society lesson last week, knowledge is power and it casts away fear. I have knowledge that we are celebrating this wonderful Christmas holiday because of our dear Savior, Jesus Christ. He came into the world to fulfill His glorious mission, and succeeded.
Max opened the last door on his advent calendar and inside was a picture of the Baby Jesus. He has loved opening all of those tiny doors.
I cannot wait for Mia to open her baby doll. She can finally have her own!
Max has just requested chocolate chip cookies so I am off to make them! Merry Christmas! Men are that they might have joy. I know this to be true. We just have to find the joy.

I am so sorry to hear that! Is everything ok? Please call me if you guys need anything. I'm sorry Ty and Max had to spend Christmas Eve in the ER! Yuck. I guess the upside is that some day in the future, when Ty is a world-famous CRNA and has to work on Christmas Day you'll all know how much some little child's family will appreciate him being there.
I'll keep Max in my prayers.
Glad he is doing better. That would be hard! We had Christmas alone as well, but got together with friends on Christmas Eve. It is good to know you always have family around with the church.
