We are thankful for the time spent in Canada, but all of us are so happy to be back home. We decided to come back a day early on Friday and are so glad we did. I almost cried as I came into my quiet, clean home, that had been beautifully decorated for Christmas by Amy, Natalie and the Jacob girls. I am so blessed to have such wonderful daughters, they did an awesome job!
People are asking, "do you see any difference in Luke," the answer is just a little bit, which is great considering they usually tell you, you won't see much change before at least 20 to 40 dives and we only took 10 dives this trip. We are noticing that he seems to be much more alert and his arms are becoming more limber. At church today he was looking at people and not jumping as much when people would try to touch him. As we've said all along, this is a slow marathon we are running with Luke and continue to stay thankful for each step along the way.
Continue to pray that Luke will limber up in his legs and that his trach secretions will lessen, this would make him so much more comfortable and make our lives a little easier. I hope and pray that you are able to enjoy this joyous season of Christmas and please don't forget in all the hustle and bustle of this busy time, the real reason for the season is JESUS. We hope you enjoy the new pictures posted below.
Love in Christ,
Luke's Mommy Sue

As you said before "baby steps". Step by Step Luke will get better. I am glad you made it home safely and can rest a bit.
Hi ya Luke!
Hello!! I am so happy to see the update!!! I couldn't sleep (2:50am) and so I came to check on Luke and found the update... I just cried and cried! I love the pictures. I am so thankful you are seeing changes! I love to see the eye contact Luke gives! Sue, your attitude is so remarkable. It gives me strength in my daily walk. Luke, our Wesley (almost 17 months) sends you kisses. We tell him you are his buddy! I love to show my children the pictures! God is working a miracle!
I am so thankful to witness it. I want to write on each one of the pictures... so tell Natalie, Amy and the boys to look and read! We love you all!!!
Your GA friends,
