Busy, busy. Right back into the swing of things. DH and his PT had long talks about what he wants to accomplish next. I heard him say he'd like to be able to drive again so I can be "free" for a while. Now if only I could get him to feel the s... Read more

Sleeping for 7 hours straight on an incline of pillows. A 3 year old GS who wears superhero capes and not much else. Feeling just crummy enough to turn down snacks. A 6 year old GS who proclaims he is an expert at chess. Ha... Read more
