Weird. I was just going to say goodbye to Graham as he was going to go to the store. We opened the door and realized that there were no lights across the street. We looked out our front window and there are no lights across that street either. We assumed there must be lights on our side of the street but Graham just went for a walk and he can't see any other houses with lights. He heard someone say from down the street, "That house on the end still has lights on. They must have a generator." We don't have a generator.
Anyway, this has brought our attention to the fact that we need more flashlights. The first thing we need to do if the power goes out is change Josiah's oxygen supply from his concentrator to the tanks. There is a flashlight hanging in his room so we're ready.
I'll try to make this brief in case we're going to lose our power. It was a pretty good day. I always find it hard listening to him when he's not happy but he did have lots of smiles today. He was unhappy in his chair at lunch and then the visiting nurse came and he had nothing but smiles for her. Actually, he was "blowing bubbles" with his lips for the first time today.
Isaac enjoyed the library program today. I also had an aunt and a friend come by for visit. It was lovely to see both of them.
After Isaac's nap I decided to ask him what we should thank God for. He said, "Um, um, giraffes." We thanked God for giraffes.
Thank you so much for your prayers!
Blessings,
Elizabeth

This is the day which the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.

ReplyDeleteI've been following along with your Blog for some time now. It is a wonder to read all the mile stones and to feel the joy along with you when you celebrate the little and big things. It confirms to me over and over again that the Joy of the Lord is your strength.
