Dancing in the rain
October 12, 2015
This weekend was big for us. I didn’t feel pulled between doing fun things with the girls OR visiting Ryan. I didn’t feel guilty for resting at home while my son was spending his day alone downtown. Instead, I was enjoying a normal weekend at home doing laundry, grocery shopping, cleaning, playing with the girls, and being the primary caregiver for my son.

Leighann,
I am so happy that Ryan is home with you all. I have been praying so hard for the little guy and I will continue. You are doing such a great job and even though I don’t know you, I am proud of you…you really set a great example as a christian wife and mother 🙂
your life seems very challenging. God bless you.
Leighann I am so glad that Ryan is home and glad it makes some things easier for you. I know it will be a lot of work for you and I pray you will hold up well. It is good that you have a night nurse…or any help that you can get.
I am still praying for you and the family…and for Ryan, and I just want to remind you that the Lord’s mercies are new every morning. Great is His Faithfulness!
Keep on trusting Him…He loves you all.

The spitting up is no fun.
Several moms that have special needs kids have something called the napnanny to help the child’s head be elevated a bit better. The people that have them love them. I found out just recently and Brayden was already to big for it.

I love that your had a normal weekend & didn’t feel pulled. What a precious gift from God for you! Praising the Lord for your night nurse – and praying that being home makes Ryan heal 100 times faster and begin to fully live the life God has for him!
So happy to hear you have a night nurse. We prayed last night you would get rest. What a blessing!!
GLad your weekend was busy but “normal”.
Dad came up this weekend and said he saw ryan. Said he was a happy little kid. Can’t wait to see him myself!
Love ya and continue to pray for you.
Happy that Ryan is home and happy that you have a night-nurse! Is the nurse at your house during the day or just at night?

Congrats on taking Ryan home. He’s doing so great and I’m so happy for you. I read your blog every day.
I’m one of those people who can’t function without sleep as well, so I’m glad you have a night nurse.
Reflux is caused by food allergies a lot of the time. Do you think maybe he’s reacting to dairy (most common culprit) in your diet?
Leighann,
I’m glad to hear all of you are together and that you had a normal weekend! I prayed all weekend and pray daily for you guys and thankful that you have a night nurse to help out with the feedings and meds. Keep looking up and Keep smiling 🙂
That’s so great that Ryan is home with you all!! I’ll continue to keep you all and his doctors in my prayers.
Answer to your question:
Prayed for you, that your time at home, together, would be blessed.
And then, the usual stuff in my own home and family.
I’m really happy for you that that there is a night nurse since I am someone who needs her rest to be civilized let alone function and can only imagine how important that is with 3 kiddos and all the extra with Ryan.
Continued blessings in your home all together as a family.
So glad to hear that your little Ryan is home with you all. I really do not know you but am being to know more about your family and Ryans condition as I continue to read about you all. I am sending my prayers for your sweet boy.
What is the name of the night nurse so we can pray for her?
