Two things really stand out for me in the book:
1. JK talks about when he was first going to Japan and the worry he had about not knowing whether he was doing the right thing. His father gave him some advice - saying that no matter what happened he'd look back on it as an experience - whether it be good or bad.
2. JK talks a lot about enjoying the moment, about tasting the coffee and feeling the shower. Really enjoying each moment.
When I look at our Boo, I can see exactly what he is talking about. Here is this little girl, going through an experience that none of us would wish on our worst enemies, yet, she's just enjoying the moments. How can it be that an 18 month old has this figured out, yet it takes the rest of us half of our adult lives to come to the same realisation? It must be because she's our amazing Boo.
Here she is - enjoying the moment:
We had Boo's cast change this week. Everything went well. We'll get the results of the scan next week, and hopefully a confirmation of a cast off date. JF was in the hospital with her by 6.45am. We were out at our local cafe for pikelets by 12. Boo was tired, but happy and has been full of mischief over the last few days. So many lessons to be learnt from this brave little girl.
About an hour after theatre:
