Lunch with Friends

I took Jessica to see her psychiatrist (we have been tweaking her meds to try to reduce her anxiety and help her sleep) and then we met with some friends for lunch. These are two of our friends from our support group, Tu Nidito. Pat (in the red) and Susan (in the white) are volunteers for Tu Nidito and we have known them for several years. As a treat, we meet with Susan for lunch from time to time. We were so lucky that Pat was able to join us today. Pat's husband has been ill this past year so we haven't seen Pat much because she has been tending to her husband. Fortunately her husband's health is improving and she was able to come out for lunch with us! What a nice surprise!


Here are Pat and Susan with Jessica. Jessica made the necklace that Susan is wearing. If you click on the picture, you can see it a little better. Jessica spelled out Susan's name with the beads. If we had known that Pat was going to be there, Jessica would have made a necklace for her, too. Jessica also drew a picture for Susan. She loves making things for others. In fact, she usually draws pictures for her doctors and nurses every time we go in to see them too.


Tonight Jess is having a hard time going to sleep. I'm sure she got over-tired but she had such a good time! We have hair appointments scheduled in the am so I hope she goes to sleep soon so we can get up and get our hair cut tomorrow. I'll take before and after pictures. I can't wait!
