Just a bit of News

Caelyn and Nigel slept at my house on Tuesday night so that I could go with Caelyn to her antenatal check up. Nigel would go to college and my Mum could come to fetch Wendy to take her to Play Group.

The doctor was pleased with the progress of Caelyn's pregnancy. As she has low kidney function and is prone to infection and bleeding from the kidneys, they take special care of her. She has regular urine cultures and fast access to medical help if she needs it. All is going well and we are all happy about that.

My Mum returned Wendy and I had my camera in my hand to show her a video clip I had taken, when Nigel came back. He handed Caelyn her NVQ in Beauty Technology to her and my camera was ready to capture her happy expression.

These photos couldn't be the same if they were taken later. Part of the joy of them is that the original moment was captured.

Nigel and Wendy were playing around happily too. I think she was tickling him in this photo. I love it because it shows the carefree joy of having fun with someone you are crazy about. Truly, we are blessed to have this sort of love in the family. It acts as a sturdy rock of protection when going through the hard times which come into everybody's lives.

I know that I haven't posted about our wonderful trip to Ireland. I haven't had the energy to do it justice, but I hope to next week. If you'd like to see the photos without the accompanying explanations, you can see them HERE
