It was wonderful to see Rich pull in the driveway this afternoon, with our little Seth. Rich was tired, Seth had a couple of bandaged boo-boos, but they were smiling at me as I met them.
We’re all home again, together.
Sarah and Papa had a nice little chit-chat. She had lots to say. I had to grab the camera so you could see how animated her face was. She adores her family and I’ve even gotten her to laugh up at me a little bit.
Isn’t she adorable? Darling? Scrumptious??
Someone got bumped one too many times. She is quite sensitive. She’s gotten mad two other times today, too. Once when she heard a loud noise and once after her bath and I was rubbing lotion on her. She cried and cried and lectured.
I had to turn her around. See how bald she is? And Seth has his hospital bracelet still on.
The docs and nurses thought he was very strong and smart. Seth hated having his blood pressure taken so many times. He tangled himself up in his IV and chewed on the cord. He pulled the IV machine to himself using the cord. Rich was kept extremely busy with him and had me laughing ’til the tears came by all the little stories.
The saddest part for Rich was when the doctors came and took Seth away for his operation, Seth was holding his little arms out to his Dad.
Seth took a nap in his own bed this afternoon. Rich and I got to lay outside in the sun on a blanket. We went for a little walk together on the trail in the woods. I made dinner and we all ate together around the table. Davy had three pieces of the chicken, Jacob was annoyed because he only got one, Caleb kept saying that his rice was too stiff. I made peanut butter brownies for dessert but Rich took Grace out for ice cream and they brought me back my favorite; a strawberry sundae.
I’m so happy!
Everyone is snugged and tucked into bed now for the night, and Rich is enjoying a football game on TV.
I wanted to put some pictures up from TODAY…..the day my little Sethie came back home! He was only gone for a day and a half but it seemed much longer than that.
Thanks for praying, friends!
PS, We thought we were headed back to the ER when, after dinner, David took his brownie and tumbled bumpity bumpity boom all the way down the basement steps. He landed in a crumpled heap at the bottom, crying loudly. Rich was by his side right away to assess damages and we were so thankful that he was okay. *sigh*
Good to be Home

Good to hear Seth is so much better! What a beautiful bunch of smiles! Yayy, for getting a sundae too! Umm umm!
Seth looks like he’s doing quite well for just having surgery! Glad things are on a happier note in this post. I know for myself, I tend to worry way more than I should with health issues, and many things for that matter. A verse I wrote down recently and have here on my desk…….”For I am the Lord your God, who takes hold of your right hand and says to you, Do not fear; I will help you.” Is 41:13
You really do look so happy to have your Sethie home- everyone back under one roof! Love the pics of Sarah and Rich “talking”- so sweet!
