Welcome note

When my husband and I set out to find and take pictures of wheelchair accessible waterfalls in every U.S. state, we were excited about the challenge. We gave ourselves no time limit to accomplish our feat; however, we had one mutually agreed upon rule that dictated how long we would stay in any given area. That rule was to never shiver again. Needless to say, adhering to this rule presented a new challenge. The new challenge was to find a waterfall that was actually flowing. Visiting mid-west and eastern states during months that prevented us from shivering are the same months that are hot enough to dry up streams; hence, little or no water flow for waterfalls. The natural scenery and picturesque landscapes warrant a second visit in the early spring right after the snow melts.

Seeing two...

I've known for a long time that Bob's eyes don't work together all of the time. He has become so aware of many things. He finally understands how his eyes are being goofy. Before today, he thought everything was fine. When I saw his eyes looking two different places today, I had him close one eye and look at an object; then close the other eye and focus on the same object. He recognized the difference in the placement of the object. Then, when he opened both eyes, his eyes were working correctly. He told me he wanted to do that everyday to retrain his eyes for good vision.

T wants to stand up and walk so badly that I fear he's going to attempt it and fall flat on the floor. Sometimes, he gets it in his mind that he is right and can do things. We end up in a little bit of a tiff. grrr...

One day at a time...
A PRAYER FOR TODAY FROM Joel Osteen
"Heavenly Father, I know what you've put on the inside of me. By faith I see the dreams you've given me coming to pass, no matter what my circumstances are. I am full of Your power and I'm ready to become everything you created me to be. In Jesus' Name. Amen"
