Amanda comes home tomorrow. I took the kids to see her after school today. Trina's been sick with a cold and was taking a nap, but Amanda was sitting up in bed, watching TV. She motioned to us to come in, so we all tip-toed quietly over to her bed. We were just settling in when a nightmare jerked Trina awake. She smiled at us, then asked Dane to come snuggle her - my snuggly boy. He gave his Aunt Trina some wonderful lovin'.
Amanda is bouncing off the walls. She was unbelievably excited. She's going home tomorrow. She practiced getting in and out of her parents van and in and out of Grandma's chariot. Life will be a little challenging at first at home, I'm sure, but the excitement of familiar surroundings and the improvement she knows goes with being able to go home are all buoying her forward.
It's been a long, hard road, but it's finally leading her home. Thank you, Lord, and make the road smooth - my darling could use a few less bumps.
