Hi folks, it's been wonderful to receive your messages throughout the day and know that you are journeying with us. Thank you.
As Wes suggested, this is the tough part right now as we're feeling slightly helpless. The nurse commented that she would like to see Amelia wake up a bit more at this point, though the anesthesiologist suggested her vitals are fine. It's slightly unclear if the pain meds and how they are delivering them might be contributing to this. Neurosurgery folks will drop by within the half hour to assess her. We are just eager to see her move to the PICU with a good report. Would you please pray that we would get out of the way when we need to, ask the right questions and press when we need to, and never forget to lean into the Lord?
Thank you for continuing to pray with us. This is the real work, isn't it? Many times it feels like prayer is something we conjure up to make ourselves feel better... but increasingly we are learning that prayer puts us in the right posture to "let God be God": one that includes waiting, trusting, honesty, and hope in and with our God who is good and sovereign.
We'll keep posting as things progress...

So glad to hear that Amelia is out of surgery and resting after her ordeal. May God continue to surround her with angels and our Lord continue to sustain you with His healing presence and peace.
