JONAH WALKS!

I don't have long, but I just wanted to let you know, if you don't follow me on Twitter, that Jonah took his first steps on Christmas Eve. It was the best gift we could have asked for, and we continue to be amazed and thank God for all Jonah is able to do. (In the nature of Jonah, he waited to start walking until he had a huge crowd around who applauded him thunderously every time... he hasn't really done it since.)

Thanks to Aunt Katherine's sweet daddy for these videos. I'll have more once I get mine off my video camera. I know you'll be waiting on the edge of your seat to see him do the same thing over and over again from a slightly different angle.


On the face front, things are SO MUCH better. The night of the 23rd, he was still looking so rough, but we went to the Christmas Village thing anyway, thankyouverymuch. The morning of the 24th, his nose and cheek were completely healed with the scabs coming off. It seriously was an overnight miracle. His top lip is still rough and he has one big one left on his forehead, but it's scabbed and not causing him any pain. Thank you so much for your prayers. I know that they are what healed him.

Love you all. MERRY CHRISTMAS! (I'll have photos when we get home but we got snowed in for one more day. I can't say that I'm upset about it.)
