Social Security...Oh How We Love You!

So, I know it's either tons of posts or nothing at all for a while.
Well, this one is totally worth posting.
It couldn't have waiting for a better time.

We got our letter from SSI today.

And...


Drum Roll....



Based on the facts they have received We will not being paying them back the 5,000.00 due to the fact that it was their fault!!

Love it!!

Love it!!

Love it!!

We had planned on getting a lawyer and fighting even more if we been rejected yet again, But hooray!!! We don't have to go down that road!

I know many of you have been praying and asking about it. So that's it. Such a long drawn out process to end with such a simple letter, but we are so thankful for our little letter.

Nate even joked we should laminate it and frame it!! :)

Wanting you to see both sides of the coin

So the last couple posts have been pretty incredible. And I am thankful. But I also want to be honest and want you to have a glimpse of both sides of the coin. Tonight was a great night. We spent time with great friends and had some wonderful conversations. However, Tonight had its sadness also. Tonight, Toby realized something or at least he voiced it for the first time. There was a baby at our house that had just turned one. He was walking around like a champ. Super cute. Toby realized the difference. At first it was just a quick sentence. "The baby is standing." and then throughout the night it progressed. "The baby is walking." And then a little more. "The baby is walking without a walker." My heart is genuinely heavy tonight. Its hard to say all around sad, because it was a good night. But just heavy. After Toby thought these things through he said, "I am going to walk without my walker." And then he tried. Needless to say it didnt quite wor...

a moment of triumph

Im having a rough day. One of those nothing goes quite according to plan cause ive been at appointments with Toby. Trying to homeschool, now juggle 6 therapy sessions a week and any other extra appointments are taking a toll on my emotional and mental stability.!! So instead of sharing all my woes with you and sitting and feeling very very sorry for myself. I'm going to share a happy moment. I hope that people from my church family will especially enjoy this. Since our Pastor has been doing the "kids choir" every Sunday morning Ive enjoyed and not enjoyed it. Of course I love seeing all the kids up there and I love watching Gracie so proudly march up there to sing and all of my friends kids. But there was always someone missing. And that someone sat right next to me, (well sometimes, sometimes he prefered the smyer family) : ) Toby would never go up. The first time he tried he started making it that way and I honestly saw the shock of stairs and kids running hit him. It ...

Toby with those arm crutches

Wednesday night we had our first teen meeting of the school year at church. We started off with praying for each other. THe girls and the guys split off. I ask all the girls to pray for Toby as he keep working on his arm crutches. (he hates them) So we sat there I heard all those girls pray specifcally for Toby. AMAZING!! The next day I sure had some fire under my tail to get him working even harder. And thats's the day it happened. I left his walker in the car (which I used to do when he first go it because I hated using it so much) we finally had a break though. We even took them to a store today and outside!! He's doing really well... And dont even try to tell me it wasnt because of having that prayer time!! ps I told Toby about all the ten girls praying for his arm crutches. All day he said, "really?" "For real?" and then he woudl say " tell me the story again how they prayed for me."
