Post Surgery

Andrew's surgery went as well as can be expected, and he is recovering quite nicely. He is getting to watch a lot of Veggie Tales and other cartoons these days as he 'recoups'.

I took these photos this morning while he was eating breakfast. His left eye is straight as an arrow (the one that wandered). We hope they didn't overcompensate on the right (normal) eye, but it's hard to tell for awhile. His eyes are bloodshot on both corners, and you can see his bruises under his eyes.

He is in very good spirits, especially since he gets to watch his favorite DVDs. He is a tough little fella; tougher than his daddy, that's for sure. My prayer is that there is no 'follow-up' surgery, but we'll take it as it comes.
Thanks to all for the prayers, phone calls, meals, e-mails, cards, coffee, and presents. What a great blessing it is not only to have a caring physical family, but a wonderful spiritual family as well.

Our little Andrew is such a trooper! Forgive me for being greedy, but can we please have that outfit as a hand-me-down when he grows out of it? It is adorable! Love y'all!
