Last weekend, we went to Marshall's to look for shoes for the kids. While we were looking around, Shelby zoomed her powerchair to each mirror area and would admire the view, pose for the mirror, make a few faces, the works. After about the third mirror station, she tells me, "Mom, I LOVE mirrors." Yup, I know :)
Yesterday morning Shane came in the kitchen and stood next to me where I was feeding Shelby breakfast. He was fully dressed and his hair was doing it's normal out-of-control thing. "Mom, I'm going to take a shower." I convinced him to just wrap a towel around his shoulders, put his head in his bathroom sink (which is super big - it's where I bathe our foster blessings) and get his hair wet that way. I ran in and helped him since Shelby was done with her food and Shane was happy with the result. As I was hugging him goodbye shortly after, he said, "Don't touch the hair!" ;)
During a recent conversation with my Grandma, she was asking if her memory really is having as many problems as I've told her it is. I gave her some examples of my concerns. We talked about how sometimes I have to repeat myself 5 times in two minutes to which she replied, "I'm just making sure you have your story straight." Bless her heart, having a sense of humor during this trying time for all of us.
