Day 289 - Friday September 28, 2012

Today Bridgett and Stephany rested at the hotel while I ran around like a crazy person getting some business done in Provo that had to be taken care of.  At the end of the day I was a little frazzled but I did get everything done that I set out to do so that was the good thing.  Hopefully tomorrow will be a quieter day!  Bridgett's neck pain was low today.  She is doing lots of reading while we are on our trip--back to reading the Harry Potter books on the kindle.  She has used the Kindle so much--daily almost!  Thanks again Alicia!  It's so awesome to live in the technology age.  Almost everyday I marvel at the many things we are able to do because of our technology.  It is really a helpful thing with learning--I love the computer and ipad games and apps that really help teach, re-teach, remind etc.  I think I mentioned this before but when the therapists said that Bridgett would re-learn many things and remember some things I felt a little bit overwhelmed about the whole thing.  As the months have passed I have seen this happen and it's really amazing to think how much she has re-learned vs. remembered.  It really seems like a long time to talk about nine months but living it goes by fairly quickly, thank goodness for all the pregnant women!  As in pregnancy, there are those days that we seem to have where it seems that nine months is forever, but generally the time passes fairly quickly.  I guess that's true in life as well....we just need to keep perspective about things.  Some days that's harder than other days.  Overall life moves along very quickly and often leaves us wondering where the time went and what we have really accomplished.  Hopefully by the end of our life we can look back and feel that we really did accomplish a lot and feel satisfied with what we have done.
