So, we, in gratitude, hunker down in our safe haven here to heal. The kids are all pitching in to help in incalculable ways, from changing out smoke detector batteries, to helping me with milking, to learning how to suction Aimee’s trach, to moving animal feed, to acting as kitchen sous chefs, to helping do septic maintenance, ect. I wish we didn’t have to ask them to step up in this way, yet I am so thankful that they are doing it with willingness and courage. They are becoming quite well equipped to meet the unexpected challenges of life while also maintaining their beautiful ability to imagine and play.
Please pray for Ed’s healing, for his pain to be well managed, and for our whole family to have the strength needed for this journey.
