Making Memories

Might I say the Hicklin family is glad spring is here! Hopefully all the sickness will be gone and we can enjoy all this warm weather. On a side note, we went and saw the ENT last Friday and due to multiple reasons (fluid on both ears still, failing the hearing screening and all the ear infections over the past few months), Evan will be getting tubes on April 5. We have mixed emotions but feel this is the best thing for him. Our hopes are for no more ear infections, eating better and hopefully sleeping better. It has been a long time coming and at this point, we are ready for it to be over. So everyone pray for us as we prepare ourselves for that!

We took today to enjoy this beautiful weather. We started our day at Cracker Barrell for breakfast then headed to see my grandparents and Evan's great grandparents. Both my grandmother and grandfather have had some health issues over the last few weeks, so we wanted to spend some time with them. My grandmother had a mild stroke and had a pacemaker installed last week. She seems to be on the mend and I know it did her some good to see Evan today. She says that is the best medicine! Evan and his Great Pawpaw Tom went fishing in the neighbors pond. They caught 4 fish in a matter of minutes and Evan loved it! Probably about half as much as my grandfather did. :) I love seeing him with them and having him make all these memories! We are all very fortunate to be able to spend time with our family. Here are some pics from the fishing trip!
