It was a good day for Jason as he finally finished up that neuro-psychology testing. He had a couple of other appointments, but they were much easier to deal with, and effectively in-and-out kind'a appointments. We got up relatively early and had a quick breakfast, then we were off to the Naval Medical Center at San Diego (that's the official name of the hospital).
After we came back to the house and had lunch, we had two visitors from NMCSD, Lus and Bobbie, two recovery case nurses. They wanted to see the environment at the house, and just a quick "get-to-know-you" kind of visit. Finally, a bit later, the girls showed up and we were happy to see them. They were happy to be home with Daddy and Papa, so it was a good night for everybody. I fixed hot dogs, beans and french fries for dinner and both the girls were very happy about that. Actually I was too, it is an easy dinner to pull together, and clean up is pretty easy... ;-)
Bath time was fun, and both of them were making quite the mess. I kept asking Jackie to stop dumping water outside the tub (one of their favorite toys is simply a plastic cup), so she started dumping water on Stacy, and Stacy didn't seem to mind at all. When I was getting the girls ready for bed I brushed Stacy's hair, and kept telling her to stand still so that I could brush her hair. It quickly became a game for her and I kept telling her that if she kept dancing around her hair was going to get tangled and it was going to be difficult to brush out. I let her dance around all she wanted, and we finally got the hair brushed out - then I braided it. Linda told me to do that before putting her to bed, to help with getting her ready the next morning. It was time for bed so I read them a book, Cars, and it was nice because even Jackie is understanding what is going on in the story.
Once the girls were taken care of I turned to Jason, as he wanted to take a shower. He was in the shower pretty quickly and the dressings were back on, and he was ready for bed. We both need to be up early tomorrow, to take the girls to soccer practice early in the morning. We were informed that practice starts at 07:30 so I need to get them up and fed by 07:00... Should be fun. Thank you, for all the continued prayers and support, and take care and stay positive.

Hope all went well at soccer today!

Psalms 63:5-8 My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness; and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips: When I remember thee upon my bed, and meditate on thee in the night watches. Because thou hast been my help, therefore in the shadow of thy wings will I rejoice. My soul followeth hard after thee: thy right hand upholdeth me.
