Surgery Next Week. Please Say a Prayer for Jackson

Soccer is now in full swing and Emma is getting better and better each and every game. It is just amazing how much these kids improve after just 3 weeks of doing some simple drills and playing a couple of games. We went ahead and signed up Emma for Tee Ball this coming season. I think Emma will be pretty good at tee ball but you know it goes as a parent all you have to do is provide them with the opportunities and see how they take to those opportunities.

Jackson is just getting over his little chest congestion problem and he goes in for his second surgery to fix his hypospadeous because the first go around they didn't get it quite right. I think the doctor said it best when he said "It is like dealing with plumbing, sometimes you fix a pipe and when you turn the water on there is still a leak." Jackson still has a small leak. It is a minor surgery but Jaime and I are not bigs fans of him having to go under for surgery. It is scary to me. Everyone please say a prayer to keep our little guy safe this coming Wednesday.

Jaime and I are just rolling along and trying to keep up with the kids and life in general. All in all it is going very well. I don't know if any of you out there watch the show Intervention on A&E but it is a show about addiction and disease and how people go through family interventions and ultimately to recovery. Between that show and watching the "Idol Gives Back" show last night we have absolutely nothing to complain about in our lives. There are people out there who have some terrbile problems and need a lot of help. Sad....

Anyway.. Below are some pictures of Emma with her preschool class mascot "Tres". (It was her week to bring Tres home). We also had soccer team pictures tonight and we decided it was appropriate to have her in her soccer garb with the soccer ball in the first shot. The other picture is of Jaime and the kids taken yesterday.... They grow up way to fast!!!! If I could afford it I would have a whole litter of kids running around. Who knows... Maybe we are not done yet. We only get one shot at this parent gig and we plan on making the most of it.
