The drip continues

I’m sure my discussion of snot is relatively non-stop when I write about Jordan. Poor kid is battling this cold. I was hoping it was going away so I could take the kids to see their uncle… But she woke up with a low-grade fever and it didn’t want to go away all day. She took about 6 hours of naps during the day — about 4 and a half hours more than on a school day. Hopefully that rest will help.

During one of her two awake times today, I plopped her outside and took some pictures of her in an outfit that was Cam’s. I thought that was kind of cool… The funny thing is how I put her in a brown corduroy hat that fit Cam’s head so well at 6 months — and it’s WAY too big on Jordan at 9 months. It’s so funny how different kids can be.

I don’t try to go out of my way to stress out… but I think there’s something in the Mommy brain that is always on the lookout for something to be worried about. I asked our PT if we’ll be starting over in many ways once we acquire this new prosthetic in Texas. And she told me that in a way — Yes. And I know Jordan will be aggravated if she is not able to move around. Once you get the taste of motion, you don’t want to stop. So I’m feeling bad for Jordan in advance. There are so many unknowns that come with this trip: Are we doing the right thing? Will insurance pay the 80% it is supposed to pay? Am I ever going to feel like my life is under control? The answer to that last question is totally up to me. I’ll work on it. I have to work on it.
