Wade's Recovery Continues Apace





Shelley, Wade and Peter visited with Wade's surgeon on Monday, June 15, 2009. Upon looking in his mouth, he declared that it "looks awesome." As the pictures, indicate, Wade was a superstar at the doctor allowing the doctor to poke, prod and investigate with no crying or complaining. You can also see from the party hat picture that he continues to look better and better. Dr. Redett believes that after the next surgery (to be scheduled for some time this fall or early Winter), that Wade's upper lip and nose will look "almost completely normal."

Wade started at the Hill Pre-School this week (his "camp" for the summer) and he has taken to it like a fish to water. After crying the first day, he ran into class on the 2nd day. He has the same pre-school teacher that Clara June had (Ms. Joyce) who is truly a part of our family and also babysits for us on occassion.

Clara June meanwhile did a week of Chinese camp and will start at the Potomac School Camp on Monday complete with to/from bus rides, swimming every day and spending time with old and new friends.
