Leaving On a Jet Plane

"I'm leaving on a jet plane,  Don't know when I'll be back again."
 Well,  actually I am off to go visit one of my best friends, Carrie today.  I will be gone for 5 nights and  6 whole days.  I am so excited, it is going to be a blast.  Just Sofia and I are going.  Noah is actually really excited to be with Daddy.  They have lots of Manly boy stuff planned.  So they will have lots of fun

Leg Update
After x-rays, bone scans and numerous other tests,  Dr Katie could find nothing seriously wrong with his leg.  After looking at all the tests,  her guess is that he could have sprained his ankle and hip at the same time,  thus causing his leg to be immobile from top to bottom.  This comes from a slight colorization which means swollen something in his hip on the bone scan and his ankle in the x-rays.  This is what she said, when talking with her this morning.  He has been taking an anti inflammatory called Napperson since Monday

I was a bit concerned leaving him for six days, if he still was not walking and there was no resolution to what happened.  Last night, Kersten and his dad gave Noah a blessing.  In this blessing, it said that his leg would get better and that he needed to have patience and faith.  Almost immediately afterwards, he looks at us and says "It is all better".  He stands up off the couch and takes 3 steps,  makes a huge grin and goes bounding up the stairs.  We asked him what made the difference and he says with such simple faith that Heavenly Father did it.  He made his leg better.  This morning he kept talking about his good leg and that Heavenly Father loved him and now he can walk with no Ow's.  It really show what great faith my boy has.

We all need to be more like little children, I guess. What a wonderful story.
I hope you have a great trip!

That is the BEST news! I am so glad that it is not something more serious. He has always had such great faith in Heavenly Father...that's because his parents are doing such a great job. Have a great time!!
