Great day in Boston...

While David and I were up pretty much every hour for most of the night last night (either with Grace or Andrew, who woke up and had trouble going back to sleep, so we had a little party in the middle of the night), cumulatively we got a decent amount of sleep.  We had a great day as a family taking the subway to the Aquarium.  

On the subway...

Ready for the Aquarium... 
Abby, Andrew, David, and I all agreed that our favorite part was the seals, the giant sea turtle, watching the penguins shake their tail feathers, and touching the sting rays and other sea creatures. Grace's favorite part was people watching, waving, and blowing kisses to everyone.  It is impossible to get Grace to nap in public because her favorite thing to do is people watch and try to get them to talk to her. It's as if she forgets about her pain and withdrawls some when she's out and about. Love our little ham! 

Miss joyful at dinner...

We also built a ginger bread house that Andrew began begging to eat the second we finished building it. 

Tomorrow, we are going to Grace's hospital to pick up a prescription for more methadone (since they have slowed down her weaning schedule) and for Abby and Andrew to hopefully meet Grace's super special cardiologist and nurses. 

Feeling very grateful and blessed today! Will you please pray for continued healing and health for Grace and the rest of our family and that the rest of our trip would be uneventful and blessed?  Oh! And since we know God cares about big and little details, will you please pray that we get some snow while we are here (currently the weather says it could snow on Thursday), the kids would be elated?

Loving you from one of our favorite cities, sweet Village!  (((Hugs)))
