Things are relatively back to normal in our home - well, as normal as it gets around here!
Chrissy is adjusting well to her trach. She had her cuffed trach changed out last week by her ENT for a cuffless one. Main difference it it allows more air up and around the trach. It took my smart girl about 10 minutes to figure out that meant she could push air past the trach and make noises! So that is just what she has been doing ever since! I am so happy to hear her little coos and aahs again. We had asked for a passey muier valve for her trach so she could use her voice, but it is just like Chrissy to figure out how to do it on her own! What a woman she is!
Stephen lost his last front tooth on April Fool's Day and he is now our toothless wonder. He looks very cute with that gap!
Our best news is that we have found a new house to lease with the option to purchase! It is in Riata Ranch, which means Katie doesn't have to change schools when we move! That is a very good thing or we would have a rebellion on our hands! She is tired of changing schools!
We were fortunate enough to find a one story so the kids in wheelchairs can navigate the whole house! It is also a gated community, which is great for keeping the little ones safe when they are playing outside!
Now if Kevin can just find a new job all will be right with the Mason world!! Keep us in prayers!
Welcome to the Mason Family Blog. Our story, our family, our happiness and our sorrows. Our journey through earthly life with all the joy and all the pain and all the faith and love needed until we return to Heavenly Father's loving arms....
"When words cannot provide the solace we need or express the joy we feel, when it is simply futile to attempt to explain that which is unexplainable, when logic and reason cannot yield adequate understanding about the injustices and inequalities of life, when mortal experience and evaluation are insufficient to produce a desired outcome, and when it seems we are so totally alone, truly we are blessed by the tender mercies of the Lord and made mighty even unto the power of deliverance." -Elder David A. Bedmar
Great news about your new home!!!!
