Amazement
for the boy who has handled being flat on his back attached to a bed, in pain. not able to move, and now with a body cast.
Thankful
to the boy who still wanted to play hide and seek despite these restrictions. Making me laugh so hard when it was his turn to hide.
Feeling lucky
for living somewhere that is so very close to a Children’s Hospital. Not having to travel hours
and hours to get there as some parents have to, and that his little leg will heal.
Gratitude
for the family and friends who have helped out with entertainment, food and logistical problems of the last week. Thank you.
Glad
for sushi, mobile phones, hospital arm chairs to sleep beside little people beds, dark almond chocolate, loving big brothers, accessible pain relief and healthy takeaway.
Now to get through the next 6 weeks with as much love and patience as we can give to our unmoving hip spica plaster cast 2 year old little boy.

* Things might be a little quiet around here for awhile. I’ve got a few draft posts that I will pop up, and I will still be reading a little bit, but comments might be few. Thanks everyone for your concern and kind words though. XX
