We want to thank our family and friends for taking care of our home and children while we are gone! We miss our kiddos so much. Also thank you to everyone who has sent us a card or a care package since we have been here! You have no idea how much it means to us. We have a great picture that Makaylin drew for us, a wonderful banner from Randy that says Love You Jason with a bunch of pictures, not to mention a bunch of wonderful cards with positive thoughts! I have taped the cards and pictures up in the room so we can see them all the time!!! It is a great reminder that you are all thinking of us!

Today, Jason walked pretty far on his own holding on to the wheel chair and partially without. He still is having a lot of trouble with his left hand and most of the time doesn't realize where his hand is. He is improving though and we are grateful that he is not paralyzed on his left side as that was one of the concerns going through the surgeries.

Tonight we played Yahtzee, that was fun for all of us because our day usually consist of appointments, eating, going for a walk around the building (there is literally nothing within walking distance, again missing Portland), sleeping (Jason tires very easily), and for me lots of phone calls and paperwork.
