A Case of the Thursdays

We survived another Thursday. Thursdays are hard for me. By noon on Thursday, I'm usually in tears and today was no exception. There was no particular reason, really. I think it just happens to be when I hit my wall each week. I have energy enough to carry me partway through the week, and by noon on Day 6, I'm spent. Thursday is also the day that Logan "rolls over" and achieves another week of maturity (i.e. today he's 36 weeks). Its a little bit disappointing not to know exactly when Logan will come home. We know he's getting closer every day, and for that we are grateful.

I learn a lot on Thursdays. Like it or not, I have to let my guard down. On Thursdays I don't have the energy to mask my emotions so I learn to be very honest. We both are learning to ask for (and accept) help from friends and family. It amazes me how much energy we spent(d) trying to be self sufficient. Slowly I'm learning to let go and lean on people.

Logan's had a good week. He got a good report from his eye exam yesterday, and he is a trooper when it comes to trying his hand at nursing. As we close the book on another Thursday, we are grateful for the progress he's made and the gentle hands who guide him. Look for more fun, detailed posts this weekend (and perhaps more pictures!)

thanks for checking in; take care
