Four Days In

We are honeymooning. Alex is doing SO well. He must have so many conflicting thoughts swirling around in his head, but for now, he has them under control.  He seems to be comfortable and finding his footing.

My emotions are under control, too, most of the time. I am sleeping, finally. I am almost healthy again. Every now and then I'll get a wave of grief, knowing what Alex has been through and the tough adjustments that lie ahead for him. I want to make up for 16 years of neglect in that one moment.  I have to keep telling myself to be patient and pace myself--he will still be here tomorrow.  Healing takes time.

Continued prayers for all seven of us are appreciated.
