Week Three

The past three weeks have been a non-stop whirlwind of visiting neighbors, friends and family. We have been so loved and cared for by everyone and have been the recipients of gifts and homemade meals, all of which were greatly appreciated. My parents, who spent two weeks with us, headed home this morning and now our house is empty save for the four of us. As much as we have enjoyed and certainly benefited from all of the extra help we are eager to return to a state of normalcy - whatever that may be as 'normal' today is a lot different than what it was three weeks ago. I guess I should say that we are anxious to discover what normalcy looks like now - as a family of four. Tomorrow the true reality of our life adjustment will set in when it is just myself and the two girls during the day...our first day alone together without any extra help. It is sink or swim time...
