Do we deal with issues that most dont think aout? Probably. But it really becomes normal. So sometimes when I have a week like this one it kind of punches me right in the gut. We've been trying to get certain medical equipment for Toby for 2 weeks now. With zero results. well finally some today. Which meant numerous phone calls and lots of stress.

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.

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."
