Please pray for our princess!

Yesterday, since the boys were still napping, Naomi and I got to have what was supposed to be some special one on one time. I saw her pick up something shiny and pop it in her mouth. When I calmly asked her to show it to me, she said "I swallowed it". (This is a constant battle with our sweetheart. Despite the fact that she is 2 1/2 she still puts everything into her mouth - unless of course you ask her to.)

Justin stayed with the boys while I took her to the Children's ER. I told them that I thought it was a paperclip. After a series of Xrays, they confirmed that it was indeed a paperclip and that it was in her stomach. (This was a praise report that it had made it to her stomach and not been aspirated into her lungs or caught going down.) So now we wait . . . we give her foods high in fiber . . . and pray that it comes out all by itself. (Yup, you guessed it . . . we get to do a treasure hunt. I am reminded of Willie Wanka and his golden wrappers. I am certain that I will be far happier than Charlie ever was when I find it). If after three days, we do not, she will go in for additional X rays.



Thanks in advance for all your prayers!

Love,
The Bledsoes
