Taylor's doing well:)

For those of you who may have read this in email for another blog...Oops! So sorry I meant to update this blog not your homegroup's! :) Can I blame the lack of sleep?? Just thought I would update everyone...Taylor is doing very well. She is recovering at a rapid rate, she is walking and sitting with no help (now getting up is another story;) she had her first outing in the wheelchair last night, Jonathan and I used several movie passes that we have had for a while to treat the kids to a movie. We saw "UP" and they loved it! I cant fathom how people go to the movies with a large family...I didn't have to pay anything out of pocket but with 5 of us a large popcorn and 2 drinks we would have had to spend 58.50!!! Yes you saw that right almost $60.00! Unbelievable!Besides Taylor's skin being very sensitive to the adhesive and meds. she is really doing so well.In other exciting news, Lauren Pooped on the potty today!!! Although she has been in panties for months now she refused to go number 2 actually in the potty...she did so well otherwise but we have had such trouble getting her to obey ALL the way:) but tonight on her own (which is yet another story;) she went to the bathroom and afterwards found me and lead me by the hand to show off her accomplishment. Oh what delight I had to see pooped...I know but if you only knew what a struggle this has been!!! :) Because it was late tonight when it happened we are celebrating with pink cake and icing tomorrow as promised when this event finally happened! I pray this is the beginning of less disciplines and no accidents.Thank you again for all your care and love for us and Taylor, we so appreciate all of you and are so thankful that God is healing our daughter.

I know what a big deal and blog-worthy event this is!! So happy for Tay too!! I was going to ask you if you wanted a Blond nurse, but it doesn't sound like you need one:)

We're praising the Lord with you! I was with Cissy on surgery day- what a glorious testimony to the Lord's faithfulness! God is so good!
