Coin Toss
Sarah is doing great in therapy and has been walking around all day without her cane. She went clothes shopping with mommy today. We are having trouble with her fitting into her clothes since she hasn’t lost the steroid weight yet. School is going good. The little cough thing that she was doing has decreased in frequency everyday and we have not seen her do it at all today or yesterday, so big Praises to the Lord!!!
We are not sure which game yet, but Sarah is going to do the coin toss for one of the Madison Football games. It will either be tomorrow night or next week. I will have to work with her tomorrow on flipping a coin. Knowing Sarah she will try to do something funny like throw it down the field. I am going to do what I can to get the whole event on video and I will post it.
I was thinking/dreaming today about what it will be like a year or two from now when we get some sense of normalcy back in our lives. I have been thinking a lot about how much I took our routine lives for granted. How I wish I would have spent more time really enjoying activities with my kids (especially Sarah) instead of feeling like dragging them around to everything was an endless chore. I really missed the part of Sarah’s life where she was a normal kid on the soccer field or playing t-ball or just one of the cheerleaders. I was there, but I didn’t pay enough attention to the details.

“I was there, but I didn’t pay enough attention to the details.” You’re paying attention now, and you will reach a normalcy. It took us about 2 years after surgery to find ours. I spent the first year after surgery thinking I would have a heart attack from the stress, and even fell apart periodically, but now we have whole days where it isn’t an issue. If you read our blog you’ll find it is about family, not the hemi. It gets better, I promise.
Sarah, you look great!!!! Abby loves the pool, and now can swim all by herself (and even does her version on swim team in the summer). I can tell you are working so hard.
Thinking about you in SC, Kelly
