This week had a little bit of everything. We had fun days, lazy days, and even a scary experience.
Monday and Tuesday were both filled with homework and relaxing. Tuesday night, Courtney had one of those rare nights out, so Kendra watched Ezra. Usually, he is remarkably well-behaved, but he got fussy. Mom has a lot of experience with babies, so she ended up taking Ezra to her room in a bassinet. 
On Wednesday, Maliyah went to dialysis and caught up on all of her schoolwork. To celebrate, we both went out for ice cream afterwards with our grandpa. On Thursday, we hung out with Anabelle and Emma and did a photo shoot. It was freezing cold, and the snow was almost too deep for us to walk in, but it was worth it. The pictures turned out pretty well. After we took the pictures, we went inside to warm up and hung out for a little while longer.
That night, Kendra was talking with our mom about a hernia she has on her side. We looked at it, and noticed a small wound that didn't look to be in good shape. This was concerning, and so we contacted Dr. Meyers right away (She is our separation doctor). We scheduled an appointment for the next day.
Friday, Maliyah went to her monthly dialysis checkup. There, they checked phosphorus and potassium levels and made sure her medicines were still doing their job. Kendra went to see a doctor about the wound on her side. Dr. Meyers cleaned it up and gave us materials to take care of it. She said we should schedule surgery for it as soon as possible, and we had to set the surgery for the 18th. Unfortunately, this means Kendra will be in the hospital over Christmas recovering. The next morning, though, it looked great! It was already much smaller and no longer appeared to be infected. If it keeps getting better, we may be able to push back the surgery a few weeks!
Later that night, we went with our grandparents to their neighborhood Christmas party and ate quite a bit of food. Courtney and Ezra came with us, too, and he got to meet our cousins for the first time since he was born.
Sunday was a good day. We spend plenty of quality family time together, drew secret Santa names for Christmas, and watched America's Funniest Home Videos like we do every Sunday. Later, we hid Emmie's teddy bear on top of the Christmas tree as an ornament of sorts-- nobody has noticed yet! Who knows-- it might be the replacement for our star through Christmas!
Until next week,
Kendra & Maliyah

Lupus as well.Dr Itua herbal made cure my HIV and gave me hope that he can cure all types of diseases I believed him) I do the best of myself that I can do, I went for a program in west Africa about fashion on another side I was HIV positive. I walk through a nearby village for our program schedule then I found a signage notice that says Dr Itua Herbal Center then I asked my colleagues what all about this very man called Dr Itua, She told me that he's a herbal doctor and he can cure all kind of disease i walked to him and explain myself to him as I'm a strangler out there he prepared me herbal medicine and told me how to drink it for two weeks, when I get to my hotel room I take a look at it then says a prayer before I drank it not knowing after two weeks I went to test and I found out I was negative I ran to him to pay him more but he refuses and says I should share his works for me around the globe so sick people can see as well. I'm writing a lot about him this season so that is how I was cured by drinking Dr Itua herbal medicine, He's A caring man with godly heart. Well - everything I decided all go through for me well and how you're going to treat this new aspect to your life. You don't have to suffer alone, and it's okay to ask for help. It also doesn't have to be a constant demon, as you'll get to know your body and yourself in a much deeper way than most people. Take advantage of this, as it will help you appreciate Africa Herbal Made.
