365: Dog Bath Day
Taryn scooped up Zachary today and declared they were going outside to bathe the dogs. Bath day with Maggie is always an adventure. She has to catch and eat the water. Silly lab!
365: Medina Lake
Another cellphone pic. We hightailed it back to San Antonio after Jonah’s ortho followup so that I can work. I had an evening session an hour away from the campground. By the time I got on the road home it was SO DARK on these twisty back roads. My PTSD tends to keep me from driving at night, too many moving lights. My nerves were shot by the time I got home. I was so thankful to pull in!
365: Momma, Jonah Broke
The adjustment in dealing with a broken bone has been a little easier this time. First, because we just did this. Second, he is in a cast from the start vs a splint so we don’t have to restrict him quite as much. Third, Z is already used to being more gentle with him. Squashing the constant wrestling the first time around was tough.
On the day Jonah broke his arm, I pulled in to the campground to pick them up in the truck. Z flung open the front door to the RV and declared “MOMMA! JONAH BROKE!” Oh sweet boy.
365: x-rays with Iron Man
This week has been really rough. Cheating with a cellphone pic because I totally fell off my 365 when Jonah broke his arm. I have no idea how we scraped together enough money for this co-pay but we did. It has been really difficult. Thankfully his swelling and pain have improved.
365: Again
Again. Jonah broke his left arm. While sitting down, no less. Zachary tried to climb in a chair with him and it toppled over. Jonah’s arm snapped in the same spot he broke it in Acadia 5 months ago. Jason was home alone with the kids and I was on my way to shoot a session. He called and I quickly turned around. After our last experience we went straight to Children’s. It was…..ok. Not great but he’s ok and the reduction was successful. He is in a big plaster cast for awhile, then he will move to fiberglass as some point. Total cast time will be at least 3 months this […]
365: A Gift
Last night at the end of my session my long time clients presented me with a gift! How sweet is that!? I love it! I am so thankful to be surrounded by loving, supportive, encouraging people. My clients have stuck with me, through thick and thin, even when I leave town for most of the year. I am so grateful!
