Happy 6 month birthday Harper!
Dr. Jimenez and Harper on her post-op check up. Mark was telling Dr. Jimenez how much we appreciated him; "My pleasure" he answered. You can truly tell that it is a pleasure for him to do this procedure for the babies.
Well, this part of our journey is coming to an end. We will travel back to San Antonio for new helmets as she grows every so often.
Since her surgery, I have looked up a little more information on Metopic synostosis. I am convinced that we wouldn't have been able to find Dr. Jimenez with out having first heard about him through Carmen Golden Keith. I told about this briefly in the very first blog. God's kindness to us is so humbling. His timing was perfect. Many babies have had the traditional surgery, but there is no comparison in how much better this one is. Thank you once again for all the prayers (they held us together) and gifts that made this trip possible.
Psalm 33:2-3 Praise the Lord with the harp; make melody to Him with an instrument of ten strings. Sing to Him a new song; play skillfully with a shout of joy.
I have always thought of this as Harper's verse. Her name means: Harper - one who plays the harp. Ellis- my God is Jehovah. She will be a sweet song of praise for Jehovah.
Psalm 30:5 Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning
Harper is beautiful! My family will be keeping that little sweetheart in our prayers.
