Closure

Ava is now home with us....finally.  As hard as it was yesterday to go and pick her up from the funeral home; I feel at least a little closure now knowing that she is safe here with us.  We are really trying to get back to some kind of normal routine for our family, but I admit it is really hard sometimes.  John is doing well;  he went back to work last week and I think that it helped him to get back into his routine.  My mom left today to go back home and that was a little sad to me.  I know she needed to get back to her routine at home, but it was so nice having her here for emotional support.  I know I am strong and I will get through this one day at a time.  I am just really trying to take things slowly right now and not rush back into a horribly busy routine.  Last week was really rough regarding the panic attacks, but thankfully those are starting to get better...thank goodness!! I truly thank everyone for your continued prayers; they are really helping more than you know.  Our family is so grateful for all of the support/prayers that we have received from our Tophat squadron family here at Luke, our family, and our friends; you guys have been amazing to us.
