Item One: Kim is in labor. Baby Izzo will no longer be "Baby Izzo" by the end of today! We're all trying not to hope for too many updates because we know she and Stephen are pretty busy right now.
Item Two: Grandma has officially left the wheelchair. The physical therapist came this morning and said her legs have gotten strong enough to allow her knees to lock when she walks, so what she has to do now is just practice, practice, practice until she gets back to where she was. He said it'll take about two weeks, in his estimation. This means that Grandma has pretty much completely healed from her fracture and is on the verge of near-independence. This is wonderful, wonderful news! Item Three: Leah has not contracted chicken pox and the waiting period is over. We haven't seen her or Benjamin for about a month and I'm suffering severe sister-deprivation. Benjamin called up a little while ago and said they wanted to come over and did we want KFC or pad thai for supper? Both sound wonderful to me. But not as wonderful as being able to see Leah and Benjamin. And Ben and I took a walk in the WARM today because it was 50 whole degrees outside! It was really nice. Smelled a little like spring; which is quite a teaser when you figure we have all of February and most of March to go before we really get some true spring weather in.

SO HAPPY FOR KIM!!!!! Praying that all goes well and they won't have to do any funny business. Glad you got out in the warm!

And so happy that Grandma Lila is going to be walking!!!! Boy can you ever tell that lots of people have been praying for her, huh? Glad Leah and Benjamin got to come over - just sorry I contracted the dread disease because now they can't come over HERE for a WHILE and I can't go over there either. It'll pass, soon though.

I know - I'm really sorry you got the dreaded disease too...I'm trying to decide if I should make egg roll filling and see if it'll keep a few days or see if the ingredients will. I'm thinking about making the filling and waiting to see if you can come by Thursday or Friday. Comments are closed.
