I'm telling ya, this boy is such a sweetheart 💚💙💛 he's been so good today, for his very sleep deprived parents. Luckily we have a nurse tonight! 👍 I love being able to take Garrett out to fun family outings. He made a haul in the Easter Egg department today...Socks, dum dums, and flavored chapsticks - all things Garrett loves! A photo posted by • n a t a l i e • (@nataliasue) on Apr 4, 2015 at 9:36pm PDT

Our weekly trach change tonight, got me thinking...Never in a million years did I think I would have a child with a trach. When Garrett was almost 3 months old we had many scans confirm that he would need one, it was a hard pill to swallow. I remember I was so sad and heartbroken. But deep down, Jake and I both had a peaceful calm feeling and we knew it was what he needed to help him. Today, I view his trach completely different...instead of feeling sad, I feel so grateful. Grateful that his trach allows him to be home with us, and allows him to play and roll, grow, laugh and watch Mickey Mouse. 💙 I don't even notice it's there anymore. Just the site of blood used to be enough to make me almost pass out - it's amazing the things you'll do for your kids! Never thought I would become a Mom/Nurse/Respiratory Therapist etc... Love this boy. A photo posted by • n a t a l i e • (@nataliasue) on Mar 25, 2015 at 10:08pm PDT
