Little by little

I was holding Annie last night after I had put on her pjs--which is her signal to start burrowing into my armpit--and I noticed that her face has lost most of the puffiness associated with steroid use. She looks so much more like her old self now--without the glazed brain-injury look, and without the puffiness. It's another present from Jesus on this long journey of recovery.

She also is consistently using the "ee-ya" word for Olivia now. Yesterday afternoon when Olivia was opening the door after school--and before Annie saw her--she called out, "Ee-ya!" I even have heard "hello" twice. Little by little those words seem to be coming back.

I guess I really need to put another video up.

Jean

I will praise you forever for what you have done;
in your name I will hope, for your name is good.
I will praise you in the presence of your saints. Psalm 52:9
