10:00 am - Physical Therapy begins again. (Ethan will be her therapist.)
Good things that happened today:
1. The sun shined and it was a warm spring day. It was the perfect weather to begin Spring Break!
2. Mom held Luke many times and was able to hold him for longer than 10 minutes. She used to complain at how heavy he was and want someone to take him. Today - I asked her if he was too heavy several times before she gave him up. (Point - Mom's arms are getting stronger.)
3. I talked with Mom for a long time this morning and for brief moments I even forgot she had gone through the hospital stuff. She just sounded like Mom.
4. The kids are at my house while I am at Mom's. They are staying with my mother-in-law until after therapy. (Point - even though I won't get to see them tomorrow morning - I will get a full nights sleep. Maybe.)
Amy, you're doing a wonderful job! Your kids are going to remember this hard time with warm fuzzies, because they have helped your mom recover, too. Even Luke is getting into the therapy action, providing weight for her to lift and hold.
