Last Thursday, 10/17 we left home and drive to Ft Worth. We had a check in appointment with Dr Hottie. We'll be going very soon for the Botox she needs and meds were increased. We have to come to terms with the fact that we will give up some cognition to keep her comfortable. Having a loopy and sometimes fussy kid who isn't in pain is worth it. Dr. Hottie also reminded us that out job is to focus on her quality of life. Exactly what we're trying to do. Just don't want quality to mean at home on the couch all the time.
Just a little celebration last weekend 10/19 for grandma Linda's birthday. The kids played dress up while we talked and laughed- what a great evening!
Make a beard like
Jeff's!
Baby Thomas brought his family down last weekend- great to be around them!
Libby's Fall choir concert
was 10/21. I am so amazed at how well our choir is doing and the kindness of the participants. Libby has a couple of young ladies who make sure she is wheeled where she needs to be and that she has the materials she needs.
Libby rocking some therapy!! 10/22
The Halloween Carnival was a success. It is a delight to be a part of this community event.
Mariah and Tyson were in attendance. They even took Libby home a little bit early so that way she wouldn't get too tired. Plus, they got some quality sister time.
There is a beauty to small town involvement and living. Growing up in a large city and high school I missed a lot of opportunities for volunteering. The role of parents in a small town is vital in that they keep everything going. I've seen such a difference in the atmosphere where people are involved in the school, the churches and the community as a whole.
I think that one of the greatest compliments to a persons life would be to needed in their community during each stage of life. I am grateful to have been allowed to take part in what is our sweet community of Happy.
