Fantastic Friday!

This morning we had an appointment for Buggy's head. I knew that we were getting close to the end, but I had NO clue that we were going to hear what we heard. His wonderful PT, Kathy came in, checked his head (there had been great progress again) and she then told us the best news...that he would only be wearing the band for 10 more days and then she was taking him out of it!!! So on April 26th, we will go in at 9:30 that morning and they will take the final photos of Buggy's head. We will be DONE! When she walked out of the room to make the final adjustments on his band I thought I was going to jump out of my seat and scream with joy. I immediately flashed back to the beginning of this journey. It was scary, unknown and gave me a lot of anxiety. But we made it. I am so proud of James. He will have been in the band for less than 8 weeks. Crazy! Looks like he was as ready as I was for him to be out of it! Ha!

This morning on my way to his appointment all I could think about what God's grace. His grace that he gives me daily. I felt overwhelmed thinking about it. Feeling so undeserving of it, but thankful for it. I was listening to an old CD that I have on our way to his appointment and the song that started playing made me smile. It was one that was sung at our wedding. It is about God's grace. It is one of those songs that makes me want to fall on my knees at the foot of the cross.

Today I am thankful for God's grace and for Buggy's great news.

"Your Grace Still Amazes Me" By: Philips, Craig and Dean

My faithful Father, enduring Friend
Your tender mercy’s like a river with no end
It overwhelms me, covers my sin
Each time I come into Your presence
I stand in wonder once again

CHORUS:
Your grace still amazes me
Your love is still a mystery
Each day I fall on my knees
Your grace still amazes me
‘Cause Your grace still amazes me

Oh, patient Saviour, You make me whole
You are the Author and the Healer of my soul
What can I give You, Lord, what can I say
I know there’s no way to repay You
Only to offer You my praise

It’s deeper, it’s wider
It’s stronger, it’s higher
It’s deeper it’s wider
It’s stronger, it’s higher than anything my eyes can see
