caterpillars and cast free



another
caterpillar
"sweet ruffer"

one of the last
pictures of em
in her red cast













sweetie and
sweet ruffer
eating milkweed
as em lovingly
looks on












cast free

she thinks it's
cool that her
tattoo is still
on her hand.










em's arm is 100% healed. as long as she's able to straighten it out completely within 30 days, she will avoid any therapy. woo hoo! today we went to a party at rec unlimited (a store that sells rainbow swing sets) and she was negotiating the climbing wall and rope ladder and hanging from a bar (the only thing the doc told her not to do) without problems. praise the Lord!

on a more somber note: while walking through the halls of the ped ortho rehab center i was reminded of how God has protected our little ones since before they were born. a little break is nothing compared to what some children/parents face on a daily basis since they were born. the girls are healthy and vibrant. sometimes they are so energetic and enthusiastic i become frustrated, but i should just be thankful.

So glad she's all healed up. I can't belive she already can hang from a bar - that's great.
We miss them already...
