This week has been so much better! Not great, definitely not perfect but definitely better. It helps that 3 of the kids are going to Vacation Bible School each morning for 3 hours. Evan doesn't want to stay and who can blame him? 126 unfamiliar children and about 40 unfamiliar leaders and he doesn't understand anything that's being said. But, I can assure you having 1 child each morning, compared to the 4 of them is quite a relief! Caleb, Dylan and Alyssa are all really enjoying the VBS so it works out all around. Today Chris and I headed to Halifax with Evan for his appointments at the IWK Children's Hospital. I hate to admit it, but I am so excited to be staying at the hotel and having a quiet night of eating out, swimming (and hot tub!) and reading. It's nice to be alone with Evan - this is our first time ever! A very nice surprise when we arrived at the hotel - our dad had arranged for the hotel and then he had come already come to the hotel and paid for the room! THANK YOU DAD AND LYNN! What a blessing!
So, tomorrow Evan will see 6 specialists and I can't wait to hear what they all say. I'll keep you all posted!!
THANK YOU to everyone who left comments, send me very encouraging emails and phoned! Last week was terrible - I'm sure there will many weeks that go well and then I'll hit a wall again and have low weeks. You are great supporters and encouragers!!!

Hi Tammy and Chris. I just checked up on you all (I love reading your blog!). Sounds like my life - but quadrupled. My 11 year old and 7 year old never agree on what they want to do. Sigh. Nicolle goes to camp this week and I'm sure will have a blast. Jason went last week. Do Chris and Dean ever miss Canoe Cove? They were always so active there. Have you thought about sending Caleb and Dylan?
Anyhoo... I love seeing the pictures and hearing your news. I'll await to hear what the specialists say from Halifax. Enjoy your 'break'.
And remember Tammy... it's OK if the kids stay home and play some days. You don't have to go places EVERY day. And before you know it... school!
Thinking of you... Karen and gang
Praying all goes well while in halifax!!
