A new book
Having finished the junior novelization of Frozen, Namine and I have started reading Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIMH.

Cardiology appointment
Nearly a year after completing the Fontan, Namine’s doctor cut back her medication as a response to her healthy heart.
-

Feeling better
I’m happy to say that Namine is feeling much better today than she did yesterday.

Sick little girl
Things never go the way we think they might. We’ll be fine, everything’s going great, and then BAM — something else comes along.
-

Climbing into the car
Today in therapy, Lesley worked with Namine on getting into the car by herself.
-

Gross things to do in a restaurant
Amid running errands on Saturday, we went to Cousins for lunch. Nothing is ever boring or mundane.
-

Friends wherever she goes
The first Friday of every month in the summer, my city has this outdoor community event. Music is played, food is served, and everyone gets plenty of exercise and beer.

Daddy-daughter time
Jessica went out this evening for a girls’ night out, so Namine and I took advantage of the nice weather and went to the park.
-

Another picnic picture
I just wanted to post this. The folks at RVA posted this picture (among others) on their Facebook page — Namine with her new friends at the picnic.
-

Milestones
Yesterday was the first day of Namine’s new physical therapy schedule. Instead of once a week, she’s got it twice a week. Her therapist felt that this is the right direction, since she’s been improving so much lately.
-

Planning a birthday
Jessica and I were compiling a list of children, with Namine’s help, to invite to Namine’s upcoming birthday party.

One more day
As I sit here typing this out, I should be home. We should be home. We would have headed home from my aunt’s this evening, but for inclement weather. With the strong winds and rain — and threat of hail — we opted to stay the night, and head home tomorrow evening.
