Here We Go Again...

Just 5 months ago, we were here with our amazing Miss Lizzie and her soccer bear, Mia.

This time it is with beautiful Miss Lucy and her So*ia the First Bear.

Once again, the wheelchair is ready and I am hoping my back is too.

My sweet girl has worked so hard to get as far as she has in a year and a half.

It breaks my heart to know that she will be starting over again with leg and foot surgery, 2 non weight bearing leg casts and lots of intense therapy to come...

but she has done it once and I know she can do it again.

She is learning to be determined...

She is learning to be strong...

She is learning to trust that even when things aren't exactly the way you want them...

there is hope and there is a reason to look past the moment....

and trust that there is a better tomorrow....

lots more better tomorrows!

It has been hard with sweet Lucy...

learning to look forward and not live in the mind set that comes from living in this, day in and day out......

with no hope of a better tomorrow...

 but we are getting there, with every procedure, with every surgery, with every band aid placed, we are getting there.

  My sweet Lucy was more worried about the fact that I wasn't feeling well and that it would be hard on me to have to pick her up and carry her everywhere, than her own discomfort.

 Her hope is in her new found family and that takes precedent over her own comfort...

 most days anyway.

*grin*

My dear little Lucy rest well knowing that the Lord has a beautiful and perfect plan for you my love...

 and this is just a part of it all, a not so fun but necessary piece of the puzzle and now...

there are so many better tomorrows to hold on to.

 To everything there is a season, A time for every purpose under heaven
Ecclesiastes 3:1

Your family loves you sweet girl and will be rooting you on!
