Ethan did the weight check again today. After two different weighs,
we are going with 38.8 pounds ( 17.5 kg ). This is about the same
as his weights on 28 June ( 0.3 kg more ). Even with his issues of
late with swallowing, he has managed to maintain his weight - GREAT
news !
Ethan received a large envelope in the mail yesterday. It was from Virginia
and had lots of stickers on it. Inside was a bunch of cards and a large
scarf covered with a USMC emblem (cool). It was from a lady named
Rita who Papa met in high school and also taught school with. She was
visiting family on the east coast but still took the time to think about
Ethan. She, and her family, are so very nice - Thank You ! Ethan's
Dad (Kent) tried to tell Ethan to say "Uh RAH" - it does not sound like
Dad, but everyone in this house understands what he is saying -
all day long ! (smile)
Ethan got quite excited today as Grandma picked some really large
tomatoes from their garden. Grandma tried to get Ethan to hold one,
but the weight was to much for him. If he could talk, I'm sure he would
say the look on his face means he thinks he is a super gardener.
Ethan also had some visitors Wednesday. Tony, Karen, and Karen's Dad
stopped by to visit. They use to live in Riverside and are good
family friends, now they live in Washington state . It was good to see them
and the large "Donald Duck" was very cool !
We want to thank everyone who continue to keep Ethan and his
family in their prayers and support. Thank You all very much.
