Today was another day of rest for Baby Todd. God was faithful again! The doctors are slowly going to try to ween him of the oxygenating machine (VV ecmo), if his lungs continue to improve. This will be a very big step in the right direction.
Jerri and I had a chance to do some Christmas shopping today. We are planning on celebrating Christmas in Delaware and working on the details. I believe this is going to be a Christmas we won't forget.
Todd Heston Martin is now official. Since his birth he was referred to as Baby Boy Martin. Because of the urgency at his birth, they didn't find it important to have the official name on file. They did the fastest registration they could. We trust God for another day of rest tomorrow for Todd and pray for complete healing of his lungs.

Thanks, Jesus, for coming to earth as a baby boy beating the odds yourself with your lowly birth and example setting life. We trust you to touch Todd with a Christmas Miracle of healing so he can continue to be an example of your faithfulness in life as well.

I'm in school amid the holiday excitement of the students and marvelling at the progress Todd is making. Praise God! THAT is the holiday excitement that makes me overjoyed!
I smile and I'm sure that my students are wondering what makes me smile: God's miracle in Todd.
