My Girl Is Back

After 5 days of no smiles following her hip surgery I had started to worry. I'm happy to say that after a good poop last weekend my (relatively) happy girl was back. How I had missed her beautiful smiles. It is one things I am so grateful for....her attitude. Through it all I know how lucky we are for that.

Oh how glorious to see her smile, playing silly games with her Daddy.

Enjoying her favorite activity, reading a book, instead of saying "NO!"

Playing with Mommy's much coveted ring instead of refusing it.

Even getting outside for some fresh air.....

and shooting hoops, even in a lower body cast and wheelchair.

Hugging her dolls instead of throwing them on the floor.

I would be lying if I said she was truly happy. She's still pointing to the cast and signing "Off". Pleading with her eyes, actually, in addition to using sign language. But over all she is back to her normal self. Taking it all in good stride...... All things considered.
