Another peaceful week. Kenna still has the congested cough. It’s lasted a long time now, but gratefully it hasn’t worsened to put her in the hospital. The meds seem to be slowly helping. She tripped over the garden hose and gave herself incredible black shiners on both knees, but those are lightening up, too.

Today Chris Coerper’s brother Kevin was married to Jenny, so Carsyn and Kenna were flower girls for their uncle and new aunt. What pros! Those of you who know Carsyn will appreciate the amazement that she allowed her hair to be gathered back and wore her dress with great grace. She seemed to “enjoy being a girl” for the day. I’ve attached a few photos.
