Organized Chaos.

We survived a very chaotic week!!! Yay!!

Had a good check up with Dr. Smith (Jet's Oral Surgeon) on Monday in Oklahoma City. He thinks Jet's tonsils might be a little big but no one is overly concerned as of today. We'll visit with Dr. Robertson (Jet's ENT) next month to get his opinion.

Wednesday, Loti (our 9-year-old pug) had several epileptic seizures. We're not sure why he did this. There could be a million reasons. He's on an antibiotic and steroid and has been doing better. It was a very scary event. We are thankful that he is doing better. We love him a lot.



Wednesday night my sweet 5-year-old went sleep walking and peed all over my kitchen floor. He woke up mid-stream and was very apologetic about peeing everywhere.



On Thursday, my very dramatic 1-year-old woke up from her nap screaming in terror. She screamed horrifically for 30 minutes. I couldn't calm her. Again, another very scary moment.  I rushed her to the doctor because something horrific must be wrong - she has never acted this way. Nope. Nothing wrong. Just drama. Never-the-less, thankful that she is well.



And Friday, we took my very brave 3-year-old in to have restorative dental surgery. He did fantastically. Dr. Lindblom ended up having to do 6 fillings, a root canal and crown. Jet's teeth look so pretty. They are white and shiny and beautiful. Thank you to everyone that prayed him through his general anesthesia. And for those of you wondering why a 3-year-old would need such extensive dental work - This is just another symptom of Jet's uniqueness. His tooth anatomy and enamel aren't "normal." Decay sets in very easily and quickly.

Right now, all three of my beautiful children have runny noses and coughs. We have started the humidifiers and praying they are able to get some good sleep tonight. Here's to cold and flu season.



Next week will probably end up being just as busy as this one was. Another trip to OKC for Jet's hearing test. Which means, please pray him through another round of general anesthesia.  We are so excited to have the question of "hearing loss" or "no hearing loss" answered.

I'll keep all of you up-to-date on the happenings at the Patton Ponderosa.

God is so Good to us and we are so thankful for His presence in our lives. These chaotic weeks would be impossible to go through without his sustaining love.

Confident of His Goodness,
Lela
