A lighter note

Here are 2 fun videos to show how much Sam has grown. She now can recognize the entire alphabet (capital letters only but unsequentially) and count to 10.

Halloween a bust

We were so excited all prepared for Halloween when Sam got sick and yes again we ended up in the hospital. So unfortunately no Halloween pics for us yet, we may still dress everyone up and get some.

Sorry but this blog is more of a journal because some day I am going to turn these into books for her.

This instance brought back memories of two years ago when she was born and we brought her home from the NICU on Halloween. This time we didn't get out until Nov 1st.

All are doing better and getting healthier every day. It is just a simple a lesson in remembering your priorities and what is most important in life.

I put up a quote on my wall only a week before that said "today's test is tomorrows testimony" Man how that kept coming into my mind as we were going through all these trials. There is nothing as helpless as watching your child so sick and having continuous seizures and nothing you can do but hold the exauhsted body. Some day I hope to know the reason why we have to continue to have this expereince as it is both frightening and exhausting to all around. But I know there is something we are supposed to learn here from it.

The thing was reminded about this time was how precious each minute with them awake and healthy is. Love every moment and cherish them.

We knew she loved nuggets but didn't realize on a sick stomach that a little one can eat 10 with in 5 hrs. Also, oreo cookies are breakfast of a champion little girl who fought so hard through all these tough few days.

Here are some cute videos and pics on a brighter note.


Can I walk a day in your shoes?
