After the drama of this morning, Payton asked if he could go see Santa. We were shocked because every year in the past Payton has asked to go see Santa but as soon as we get there he backs out. He told us he was BRAVE and that he wanted to tell Santa what he wanted for Christmas...For those wondering, He wants a Thomas the Tank Engine Lionel Train. Here is Payton and Santa.
After seeing Santa and spending some time at Bass Pro Shop with Payton, Miranda and I went back to the hospital. It is so hard trying to choose which child to spend time with. Brayden needs us there with him to give him support but then again Payton has been left with Doa for the better part of a month. We talk to him on the phone often but he always tells us he misses us. I think he knows there is something going on with Brayden, he is a very intuitive little boy. This morning he asked me, out of no where and before I had told Doa about Brayden's pneumo, if Brayden was doing ok. I think he knows Brayden is struggling. It breaks my heart to have to leave him behind and not include him in what is going on with is little brother. He love shim so much and wants nothing more than for him to come home. Payton asked me today if he could come to the hospital with us so he could spend time with us. I love that little boy. He is going to be a great big brother.
