Forgive us for showing a little skin(and my finger covering part of the second photo), but had to share that today Cassie had her first real bath since November 17! Josie joined her, and they had a marvelous time soaking in the bubbles. They played happily for almost an hour while I scrubbed the rest of the bathroom. Cassie was delighted of course, as she has always been a big fan of tub time. In her old life she was accustomed to bathing frequently, and even had multiple baths a day at times, because of the fact that she thinks of her hair as a napkin. So you can imagine the
torture it was for her over the last few weeks, whenever she heard the bath water running and it wasn't for her. It was always tricky to keep her distracted, and to keep her clean for heaven's sake! So
hallelujah for today and
Hip Hip Hooray! (as she was chanting in the first photo). The simple pleasures in life we had so taken for granted...
the tub!!! oh man-kids and tubs just go together. glad she's back in. love the naked shots. every day is getting better and better with new milestones. so glad november and december are long gone!
ReplyDeleteOh Happy Day! There's nothing like a bath to cheer you up, warm you up and make you feel like a new person again. I'm sure Cassie was in Seventh Heaven as was her mom, I'll bet. It's so wonderful to see her getting back to all the normal things in life...i.e., In 'n Out and Bubbles!!
ReplyDeleteYay, so happy for her. It really does make you stop and appreciate all the things we enjoy and take for granted. What a little sweetheart!
ReplyDeleteYay!! (my Kassie thinks her hair is a napkin too :))
ReplyDeletejust checked your blog for the first time in awhile. We're so happy that things continue to get better and better. You have been an inspiration of faith and patience to us all. We do take so many things for granted!! But your whole experience and all that Cassie and your family have been through have taught me so much. Thank you!!! I love you all. Aunt Tricia
