and the bravery award goes to....

Mr. Connor Moody!!!!!!!
You have gone through and continue to go through so much with hardly a peep or complaints.
You have therapy several times a week, have to see countless numbers of doctors, wear braces on your hands and legs and have nothing but smiles to offer to people.
(before surgery)

(checking out his GIANT booties)

You had surgery yesterday morning, are in an insane amount of pain but still continue to smile and dance while laying lazily on the couch.
(right after surgery.  lots of pain)



The nurse at the hospital did a horrible job taking out your I.V. from your foot and you hardly screamed even though it was clear you were in agony.

We can hardly change your diaper right now without you wincing but somehow you still manage to look into mommy and daddy's eyes and say dack oon (love you).

For this Connor-you are by far the bravest little boy mommy and daddy will ever know and you deserve this award with love!

Sarah,
This truly made me cry. Connor is amazing. You are amazing. Eric too. That picture of Connor laying in your lap right after surgery is what makes me cry the most. He is SUCH a sweet little fellow! So strong and brave. You all are so blessed to have each other.

poor guy! surgery on the little ones is never fun, but having been through it three times now, i'm quite sure it's hardest on mom.
