You've got to be kidding me!!!

Ok.....so it's not like my family does not have tons going on right now with Peyton's surgery coming up and the start of a new school year in a brand new class.....but now I am totally useless! Today at recess I slipped on some loose gravel and as I hit the ground heard a "snap". Well that snap was my leg breaking in two places. Both bones in my leg broke at my ankle so I am now an crutches and with a two year old that means I am pretty much useless. I can't do ANYTHING but sit in the recliner. You know, I have always thought that would be nice, but it's HORRIBLE!!! Thank goodness that God has blessed me with a wonderful husband that has waited on me hand and foot since we left the hospital. I guess now I will take some pain medicine and go to bed (that's all I can do!!). I have to go to the orthopedic doctor in the morning to see the extent of my injuries. Please pray that I don't have to have surgery!

Last Hoorah!!

Well we just returned from Tybee Island where we spent 3 wonderful days on the beach. This was my last "hoorah" before starting back to school tomorrow! We had a blast. Peyton absolutely loves the beach and had a great time playing in the sand and in the ocean. I don't know who had more fun in the sand, Peyton or his daddy. Gran Gran and Grandpapa (Robby's parents) went with us and they really enjoyed seeing Peyton playing on the beach.

Tomorrow it's back to the grind. I am looking forward to a new school year but not looking forward to leaving my sweet little man at all. I have really enjoyed spending the summer with him and he's grown extremely attached to his mommy so tomorrow may be rough on Daddy and Peyton. I am looking forward to working with my new kids though. I am now going to be teaching the adaptive curriculum classroom and I am VERY excited about that. I am going to miss Preschool but you do what you have to do. I am also excited about my new parapro, Karen Bufford. She is going to be wonderful, but I am going to miss my old parapro, Jennifer. So there will be a lot of changes but change isn't always a bad thing, right?

As far as Peyton goes, we are anxiously awaiting our surgery date! We will only be going to therapy every other week until then. This is because we have really done all we can do until Peyton has more access to sound and language. That does not mean that therapy stops at home though! We will be working really hard still and counting down the days until he has his first Cochlear Implant.
