22 lbs and counting

To some of you 22 lbs doesn't seem like a big deal... some of you might want to lose 22 lbs.... Americans eat on average 22 lbs of candy a year...the Israelis eat over 22 lbs of turkey in a year... Americans also eat 22 lbs of tomatoes (mainly in the form of ketchup) in a year .....22 lbs in our house is a big number any way you look at it. We weighed in today for Claire at just over 22 lbs... we have not seen that number on her since she was one! yeah! And yes.... still seizure free! Hallelujah! Keep packing on the pounds Claire. Her therapists continue to be surprised and impressed by the progress she is making.... We will take every baby step we can get.

And the countdown to Christmas continues. Another link from our paper chain gone. The excitement is building. Are you waiting in expectation of some great gift you have hoped for? or are you waiting in expectation for the celebration of Jesus' Birthday?

That is such great news about Claire, Mandy! I am so excited for her and your family of all she is doing. God is so awesome and it's so inspiring watching Him perform His miracle in Claire. Merry Christmas!!
