Some Days Are Diamonds...

Gracie is doing awesome and her stitches are almost all dissolved, believe it or not! I don't have the stuff right now to post any pictures of her, post dog-attack, but I thought I'd post some of these slightly older ones from right before Torrey...



We have really been staying close to home and trying to keep both girls happy the last few days. Gracie can't go out in the sun for any period of time to try to prevent scarring, so we've gone to see Wall E, to the aquarium to see the fish, to the library to check out books and movies, and Grandma even let her do some watercolor painting downstairs in her office today. It stinks not being able to go outside! As soon as she's all healed up and I can slather her with sunscreen, we'll be good to go though.

Gracie IS doing much better. It's amazing how resilient kids are. We're really lucky the situation worked out as well as it did.

What great parents you guys are! We love you and can't wait to see you in late Sept. If Gracie isn't Sun-ready by then, just let me know and I'll bring our collection of kids board games so we can have fun indoors together.
