I’m starting Thanksgiving early this year! (Not that there is a time limit on being thankful or anything!) Yesterday we took our little guy to the children’s hospital to be re-evaluated for his muscle condition. He was born with cramped muscles on one side of his neck and at nineteen months old he has been in therapy for most of his life. Some children face physical deformations, surgery, and various other trying medical procedures. So far our son has had therapy, taping, a special collar, and Botox injections (who knew?), which have not been fun, but could be much worse. Well, yesterday we got good news! He still tips his head more than he should, but it is now habit and not a muscle condition!!! Yea!!!
More good news is that the Doctor could find no sign of physical deformation in his face or jaws (bad for dental work!) and only a little bit of a flat head where he sleeps. The doc informs us that this should continue to round out as he grows and hair will soon (we hope—he’s been bald for a while now!) cover whatever remains.
So while I plan to write a whole Thanksgiving blog in a few weeks, I just had to post this blessing a little early.
Praise God!
Countdown to Thanksgiving!

Absolutely, praise Him! Such a blessing this is, and I'm so happy to hear the good news. *sniffle*
All I can say is, soon the hair will come! Both the girls were baldish like that until about 2 - and now they have beautiful hair. Feels like such a long time coming, doesn't it?
I'm so happY! God is good. He is an adorbale little guy. He wears light on hair well :).
