Gratitude

We are grateful for the many gifts we have received.  Every good and perfect gift comes from above, coming down from the Father of heavenly lights. (James 1:17)
Today, we thank God for weekends at home, for Lydia's voice joining the chatter around the dinner table, for improved balance and strength in Lydia's walking, for healthy foods to fuel our bodies, for visits from family and friends, and for the sun of righteousness that is rising with healing in its rays.  (Malachi 4:2)  Lydia is healing each day.
We have had a good day together.  Lydia has continued with her voracious appetite - it is a good thing we grow food!  She enjoyed her first corn on the cob for this season.  She held it rather awkwardly, but she managed it on her own.
Lydia has rested a lot today, and hopefully, she is ready for her full week back at Holland Bloorview.
For those who have wondered, Sam 's foot is healing well.  He is back to all of his normal activities, and he will simply have a small scar on the top of his foot to remember his Labour day injury.  Thank you for your prayers.
