So we were able to get all of Milltown 2, thanks to Trevan's hard work, wonderful help from John&Linda, and support from lots of others as well. It was great to be there and get the focus off of our little world and it's current challenges. Thanks to Travis E. for ordering a reclining wheelchair that helped maximize "reclining"time. As it turns out, those grounds aren't exactly w/c friendly, but we made it and we have new appreciation for those who undertake convention in a w/c every year! We stayed in a hotel but set up our tent for a day spot to gather/relax/store things ... so from that spot we had a front row seat to lots of the kid action. I'll include some video clips and pictures, as seen from my recliner chair ... One minor complication of convention: Toriana decided on Tuesday that she was ready to buy and wear her long-discussed Hello Kitty underwear and there's been no turning back. Only 2 small accidents since, but lots of nervous moments (a waterproof pad for my lap provided some peace of mind when we remembered to bring it with us to the mtg room!).

We heard about the hymn "I Need Thee every hour" ... could we also honestly sing "I Heed Thee every hour"? God can say "I feed thee and I lead thee every hour." Also heard about going "through" to get "to".

So, the picture you see twice is not visible on my editor screen, just on the published one ... there are some good things about the new blogger, but still some blips I think!
So sweet, Jill! I was thinking of you all up there--we had good days at Olympia, as well. :) Take care, and looking forward to the arrival of the little man! :D
Oh Jill, this last picture is sooo precious, I LOVE it!!! Be sure you keep it in your collection of your best pictures, and I am sure that the person we can't see in this picture will value it very much maybe after 20 years, maybe he will value it the most. I am glad you cought up and posted more pictures this time. See, this bed rest is good for something too :-).
Sure Emily and Jonathan enjoy very much playing with Toriana, so please come over any time you want, or we can come there again too.
