Monique's first year in school os over. She is learning to read and to write. She is getting so big and I am amazed every day by her strength. We are now enjoying her first official summer vacation of many to come. It hasn't been very nice outside but we are trying hard to find things to do. And if all else fails there is always day camp.
Monique turned 6 on July 15 2009. Today we are August 5th, 6 years ago today I held her for the first time after her surgery. My little miracle! Now she had a lose tooth and is excited for the tooth fairy. Being a child is so magical, I think in ways we, as adults can't even remember.
This year, we will be attending the Heart Talk for the first time. She will play with children who have scars like hers. I am curious to see how she will react. If at all... nothing really phases her much.
Just a note to let you all now that all is well. Heart hugs to you all!!
Faith
