So I have been putting off writing more about the last few weeks. But Matt has been home almost a week now, Orson is settling in, I am figuring out the new norm and things are getting better. We have so many, many people to thank for all of their help. I would not have ever been able to get through this without all of the support of family and friends. Life is different and probably will be for a long time. I miss getting to spend all day with Orson (yes we are in the same house but he is no longer the only one in need of my attention), I love seeing Matt all day but I also know that there will come a time when he is stir crazy and still unable to stir and things will be harder. I love getting to see so much of my family....their arrival and willingness to stay and help out has been amazing. Special thanks go to Brooke Wood, Lynda Lucas, Holly and Larry Hartman, Camille and Nate, my brother Nate, all the ladies from my moms group and to all the prayers, letter writers and flower senders!

Orson waiting for his 1 year check up...such a big boy, he didn't want to sit with any of us (he is now 32.5 inches and 23.5 pounds)

Anyways, I am mostly writing this to send a special thanks to our family's St. John. Pat wrote a letter to the editor that explains fully what he did for us. I would only add:

So glad you have had so many people looking over you! Did this happen in Tehachapi? I used to live there!
Christy, yes it did.
Kim-thank you so much for updating! I have been on pins and needles waiting for you to update and this fills up so many of my questions that I won't bother you by asking. I thank God that he sent John to take care of you, and he will be in my prayers for the rest of my life! Keep posting when you can!
