Here is little Mav today. He had an IV in his scalp and it stopped working - that's the reason for the dark line on his forehead. His weight is down again today. They've changed up his antibiotics a little, and his BUN and creatinine are finally coming down!!! YEA! I'm back in Dallas this evening. I couldn't hardly wait to see him. It's so heartbreaking to have one here and our other three in Shawnee. Thankfully, we'll all be together this week.

The kids and I had a good/busy week in Shawnee. It was so good to see everyone. We really live in a neat community and are blessed to have such great friends and family. My mom left today right before we did. She's staying with her parents in Tuttle until her plane leaves on Monday. That's the longest amount of time I've spent with her in a long time. Those of you who have your mommas close should be very thankful. I do have a sweet mother-in-law close by and I couldn't make it without her. She treats me like her own.

Keep Mav in your prayers. I'm really hoping we can all be together by Christmas or New Years. Love you all, jc
