Rebecca is still having seizures with the hormone therapy. The medicine is aggravating her stomach and she sometimes throws up her bottles. Please pray for her comfort and that the medicine will stop her seizures.
Her birthday is coming up in a few weeks, please pray that we make it through that time. There are so many hard memories from her first year, it is overwhelming. Please pray for Susan and the girls to get through this.
I cleaned out the garage. Haven't had time to do it over the last year in getting ready for the baby and dealing with the aftermath of her birth. I was going through things to take to the Biedenharn House when I stumbled across a plastic storage box. I opened it and it was baby toys. Then, I remembered getting them down from the attic at the beginning of April 2007 to put in Rebecca's Room. Susan had saved baby toys that were Katherine and Elizabeth's favorites. Last May, I was going to wipe the toys down and put them in Rebecca's room, but we never got around to it. One toy was a piano that Elizabeth would pound on. Another was a cube with specially shaped holes in the sides that you place the correct shaped toy in the correct hole. There were also a few hard back baby books like Good Night Moon and Polar Bear, Polar Bear. These were books Katherine read to Elizabeth to teach her to read.
It was hard for Susan and me to put these back in the attic. I guess, in the back of my mind, I have left them out all this time in case she got better.
Thank you to Susie and her friends for the nice Easter Baskets. Your kindness is overwhelming. Our family truly appreciated your kind words and encouragement. It was was a timely surprise and we are truly thankful for your kindness and compassion.
