Preparing to come home!


We are coming home today--- thankfully a corporate angel flight came available  yesterday while Grier was in surgery--- by the time he was in recovery we could tell him we were flying home to Charlotte tomorrow!! I do not think he was overly excited because yesterday's events sent him over the top with anxiety and pain--- more on that later! We leave the Ronald today at 1-- drive to Teeterboro and fly into Charlotte!  Should be home by 5pm- I will update soon with lots of details of what has gone on the last couple of days--  I just need to figue out what to say :) We are very thankful for this company participating with corporate angels--- it not only saves us time and money ( airline tickets less than 24 hours notice are quite expensive!!--- and they do not seem to care why we are booking so late-)  but it will be more comfortable for Grier since he is still recovering from another "crack in his side"-- I can not name the company but it is one our banks!!!  ps -- This picture is Grier showing off his body--- he may have to be Frankenstein for Halloween instead of Jeff Gordon-- :)  I saw some PJ's at target that said Chicks dig scars..... hmmmm???  They are really going to dig G!

Doesn't matter how many scars that little guy has -- it's his BIG smile that counts. I'm happy that the smile is on mom and dad's faces too since you are coming (or already) home!

Happy, happy homecoming! Glad you are safely on your way!

Love and prayers continue to you all. Hope school is only a few days away for Grier!
