I suppose this would be a good time to post an update....seeing as half of the winter season has past by since my last post. There have been things I've wanted to write about but I am unable, at this time, to reveal such thoughts (how's that for suspense?) But I thought it might be a good idea to update everyone on a few things.
Alex has been dealing with alot of painful affects from his accident. He still walks with a limp and simple tasks, such as airing up the tires on our van, are extremely painful. The official diagnosis is nerve damage, which his PCP acknowledges only time can heal. He has been put on this medication that makes him feel weird, but its the only thing out there that claims to possibly help nerve damage. So, please pray for him, as he feels permanently disabled at this point in time, having not seen much improvement at all in regards to his pain.
Jacob is inching ever to closer to being completely potty trained. Even though it has and will continue to be a slow process, I can finally see the finish line. I am so proud of him. I am just thankful that he will do just about anything for a Dr. Pepper (he IS his mother's child).
Josiah is playing basketball this winter which has been alot of fun. I have to admit that it takes me back to my b-ball playing days - the smell of the gym makes me smile....such a wonderful scent (the hardwood floors, that is, not the sweaty children). Josiah is a hustler, plays great defense, and has an eye for throwing a great pass. He hopes to continue playing in the future. He says he likes it better than t-ball.
Micah is just an absolute joy to be around. He has his moments (he is 3, you know) but he's so much fun and makes me laugh. He's also very smart. Alex took Micah along to a neurology appointment for Jacob last month and the neurologist kept observing Micah (even though she was supposed to be observing Jacob) and kept commenting on how advanced his development is. I don't take this for granted one bit. I am so thankful that there have been no reasons to be concerned about his neurological develepment.
I'm still working part time at a dental office and really love my job. I work with great people and look foward to going to work everyday. Not everybody can say that.
All in all, things are going well. God has truly been pouring out his blessings on us lately. More to come....I promise.
