This month brought forth many changes.... One being the dreaded surgery to correct Cooper's eye muscles....which without Timmy I would have never done it. Now that it is behind us I am so glad we did the surgery for Cooper.
I did a lot of crying before the surgery now I have tears of joy that Coop is healed and made whole. He now has every opportunity everyone else does being that he has regained depth perception. Thank God they can do corrective surgeries like this.....
right now from the surgery his eyes are bloody and have stitches in them but they are soooo straight!!!! I guess I never realized what a difference the surgery would make. They say that they will not know if the surgery worked for 3 months but already I know that it did work...... he is grabbing at things he never grabbed at before. He looks at you like he is seeing you for the first time and pulls your face close to his .....It melts my heart...
Now we just have to get him all healed up which they say takes about 3 weeks. He has been such a trooper through all of this...... he had to wear an eye patch everyday since July for a few hours a day- which he hated..... Now he has eye ointment and antibiotics a few times a day.....
I just keep telling myself he will not remember any of this. I'm just so thankful that this is all behind us and that he is such a strong boy....
God has a placed him here for a purpose with all the struggles I had getting pregnant, during pregnancy and now his surgery he has come out of it all.... I just can't wait to see what that purpose is....
Tonight after we put him down I just started crying ......I thought to myself just when I think I can't love him any more....I have fallen so much more in love with him.. HE is my little miracle boy and I will never take one moment for granted. I have just felt overwhelming blessed all day every time I look at him.
We brought him to church you have never seen anyone dance during worship like him..... it was like his feet were running and he was actually singing. The people in front of us turned around and said he had a good voice. (not sure where he got that from)... It was darling... Then he just collapsed after 30 minutes of non stop worship.. I think he was thanking God for his new eyes..
Oh yeah in the midst of this all 2 new teeth that makes 4!!! So cute .. I love you Coopie LOU!!!!!
