Well, actually this picture was made a little less than 2 months after surgery - it was made on Halloween. Micah was a cowboy/sheriff aka "Woody". What a handsome cowboy he was! He had a great time trick-or-treating. Kelli and I took he and Grace downtown Watkinsville where all of the merchants were "treating" the children. After our second stop, Micah looked into his bucket and said, "Wow!" After a few more stops he just wanted to stop and eat candy. I'm sure he was thinking that this holiday where you dress up in play clothes and walk around and get candy given to you was a great day!
I cannot believe that it has been over two months since his surgery. I'm really bad at keeping blogs updated, aren't I? Oh, well, as I told someone today, we're still in the "survival" mode here. Micah has recovered from his surgery well. His palate looks good for the most part - we think he may have a small hole at the front of his palate, near his teeth, but we're hoping it will close up on it's own. We go back to the plastic surgeon next month.
Micah's speech is picking up. As I picked him up at Mother's Morning Out today even his teacher told me he was starting to use his words more.
His personality continues to emerge. He is such a loving little boy. He's definitely precious to his mom and dad. We count our blessings everyday (even if we have to lay in the bed to do it!)
