Kayson Strong as an Eagle Day 22

Saturday 2-10-18
My daddy came and picked those of us there up at RMH, I'm so not used to everyone being so spread out!  We like to keep everyone close!  Then we drove through Mcdonalds for breakfast and took it up to the hospital, we can all eat together in the room now that we are out of ICU.  Last night when the kids got there, Kayson and Kalani were seeing each other for the first time in three weeks bc she couldn't be on the ICU floor, she was so happy to see him and it sure sounded like she said, "Hi, Kayson"!  Daddy stayed with Kayson while we took the other kids to rainforest cafe for lunch.  We were NOT prepared for the cold!!!  We were sent a prayer shawl and were super glad for it bc it covered Kalani on the way onto the mall!  Sooooo COLD!  There was an hour wait for the table so we walked the mall a bit.  Bought Kalani some pants so her legs would be covered bc she only had bloomers and then she leaked all over those right as we got our table and had to be put in PJs that we found in her bag!  Then she wasn't eating anything, just throwing it all on the floor, even the tomato!  Till I gave her a piece of my hamburger and she took off the bread and chowed down on the meat!  We let them choose something from the gift shop, Keegan was so excited to get a build a bear!  I didn't know they had those in the Rainforest Cafe gift shop but they did.  Also found a rubber snake for Kayson that I thought would be perfect to keep his hand occupied.  He didn't put it down for like a whole day!  Then we walked some more of the mall after.  Found a sale at the Disney Store.  Saw these guys selling these things called dragon balls that were candy froze with liquid nitrogen and would make you blow smoke.  That just doesn't seem safe to me.  We got dippin dots!  When we were leaving it was starting to drizzle and if you looked real real close you could barely see little itty bitty snow flurries!  Then it was time for my daddy and babies to head home.  It is so hard to say goodbye.  Kayson gave us a thumbs up though.  I didn't realize just how long it takes for the brain to really wake up.  Oh and he spoke to us!  The Doc was saying not to expect it yet but he did!  He said Mama and Dada and yes and no!  Oh it was soooooooo special to hear his voice!  Everything has been so iffy and so scary!  But he's here and alive and knows us!  He knows us!!!!!!!!

  1. So glad you got the prayer shawl. The ladies of our church makes them and they pray over each one before they go out. I went and picked out the brightest one we had! Courtney said he likes orange and bright colors. We are praying for Kayson and each one of you. (I'm Courtney Skeltons mom) love watching his wonderful progress!! Keep up the good work Kayson!!
