A BIG THANK YOU!

As hard and emotionally draining as it has been to think back to all that happened while William was in the hospital,  it's amazing to remember the many blessings, tender mercies, and miracles that we saw  each day during and after his surgery. Even now, looking back we have noticed even more ways that Heavenly Father was blessing us during this time that we didnt notice at the time and also how he has continued to bless us everyday since. We were blessed while William was in the hospital to see the positive in his progress everyday. In the hospital I looked at William's scar and it didn't make me sad but was amazed at how it looked better and better each day. Now looking back I can hardly look at pictures of his scar without getting emotional. I can't bear to think about doing it all over again within the next year. William has brought our family closer in so many ways. He is a special little spirit and we love his so much. It's so cute to see how much London loves her little brother and loves to help out. She is constantly getting his stethoscope out and checking his heart. We love our little family.

We feel such an immence feeling of gratitude. We are grateful for the Dr Burch and his team of doctors, Dr. Pinto, the anethesiologist, Dr. Gray and nurses that watched over William in the hospital. We are so grateful for our IHH heart friends who came to visit, bought us dinner, and lended us comfort. To parents and siblings who watched London not only for my many doctors appointments leading up to my delivery but for watching London for 2 week straight and who sent us pictures so we could see her and know she was having fun. We are grateful for the many meals and freezer meals from our family and ward members that gave us the energy to keep going. We also appreciated all the stories that were shared about others who have gone through something similar experiences. We are especially grateful for the many people who fasted and prayed for William. It was extremely humbling to hear of so many people that we knew and alot that we didn't know that were praying for William and our family.  We felt those prayers and know that is why we saw so many miracles. Words can't express how grateful we are for all of you! Thank you!
