Slow Progress, But Progress

I haven't been receiving many updates, but as of Saturday here's the latest on her status.

"Golightly has shown improvement in her eye reflexes!! When stimulated today she reflexivley blinks and her pupils are both dilating properly the nurses say. Of course we still have to hear word from the primary doctor on Monday but things are vastly improving!! All the prayers everyone is sending her way are making a BIG impact, thank you all for the continued support!!!"


and this from her mother:
"She demonstrated eyelid movements today, .....I live for every
millimeter of movement, for me that is a milestone of hopeful
progress. She moved her lids SEVERAL times....PLEASE continue to
pray, God works in mysterious ways......."


So that's the last update. I guess it seems at this point no news is good news. As always, please continue to pray.

As for me and my life, nothing too exciting, unless you count the box of hand-me-downs we received for Lucero, which I actually did consider kinda exciting. They were from her three-year old cousin and most of them are in decent shape and very cute, but Lucero won't be able to wear most of them until next year when she's two. Still, something to look forward to.

And on another clothes-related topic, there was this little toddler dress from the kids Gap that I was so going to buy for Lucero, but I put it off until I had the money, you know, the responsible thing to do. It was on clearance, only $9.99 online, but still, I thought to myself, "If it's a good idea today, it'll still be a good idea when I have the money." Yes, I know, it's only $9.99, but isn't
that the kind of thinking that gets so many people in over their heads with debt? It's just a little bit of money, but next thing you know all those little things add up. I waited and a week and a half later the money was in my account. I went to the website and, sure enough, it was sold out! I was so bummed. So if any of yall happen to go by a kids Gap or baby Gap and you see a large floral print tunic-style dress in either yellow, red or green and it's a size 12 months, please get it for me and I'll pay you back. I'm not even joking about this. I wish I had a picture I could post of it, but like I said, it's sold out online, so therefore no picture. Anyway, I've been adoring this dress since after the holidays and I told myself I would get it for her when it went on sale, but obviously I waited too long. Aww, shucks.

Ok, I have a little one pulling at my leg, which I guess means my time is up. Later days, folks.
