Celebrating our normal

Another week has come and gone and Grace continues to get healthier and healthier. Praise God!

She is really enjoying 3rd grade and always has something to tell me when she gets home, which is new, in years past, she used to be really quiet about school. She is constantly reading a book or writing a little story for us when she is at home too. She continues to enjoy going to

her art class and her dance class and has also enjoyed some play dates with friends...something she had really been missing when she was sick.

Our family also made our annual visit to the State Fair this past weekend and we had a great time. One of the things we talked about was how fun it was to watch Grace be in a crowd of people and not be afraid about her getting sick. I also continue to marvel at her love for food...and the State Fair is a fun place to watch her eat! We have so many things to be thankful for!!

Three prayers I have right now: 1. that Grace would remain healthy 2. that she would somehow understand the medical things that are required of her and not fight having these done. 3. patience for me during these struggles with Grace

Thank you for your continued prayers for our family and for checking in. We are celebrating the joy of a somewhat normal life right now and trying to not get caught up in the fear and anxiety of when could things get bad again.

Love, Carrie
