Rebecca's Results..........

Well, after a very long conversation with one of Rebecca's pediatricians, we know have the results of her tests.

Her bone xrays of her little self came out very well and are ok. They were able to tell us ALOT about her. (and maybe some we didn't want to know about) Her bloodwork was THEE best!!!! All clear there. They were worried about 2 particular chromosonal genetic heredities that could stunt her growth, but they are normal! (thank you Lord)

The end result? Apparently her biological parents are very short. Therefore, Rebecca will be short. They are estimating her total height (from her xrays) to be around 4'6 to 4'10. (possibly even up to 5'0, but that's on the high end) Short is ok! I'm 5'4, so that's ok.

There is one extra thing we were able to find out from her skeletal frame as well. It's something we were fearing, yet wondering about if the information we were given for her, from China, was correct. Her chronological age from her xrays say she could be actually younger than she is. (I WILL NOT get into this unless it's in private emails.) For Rebecca's sake, her birthday is her birthday! SHE IS 4 YEARS OLD! END OF STORY! Dad and I feel VERY, VERY strong (and united) on this! She knows her birthday. She knows what month it's in. She knows what day it is. She knows how old she is! AND THAT'S FINAL!

So, to this, we say, THANK YOU LORD for the tests coming out very well for her! God made short people so we could look after tall people! hehehehehehehehe.....*s*

Matthew's just about over his sinus/ear infection stuff. So glad. Poor guy, he's getting use to the augmentin taste! Ewww......smells like coconuts. Don't ask me to taste it! Yuck!

Just gearing up for Matthew's party and resting from a yucky week of quizzes, homework, classwork, midterm exam, and doing family stuff. Maybe we can relax? naa, not in the vocabulary! Until then?
