repeat the sounding joy.

happy holidays friends of ours.

elida is doing so well - getting stronger and more darling all the time.

we feed her little bites of thickened milk. in a week or so, we can start two short feeds a day. slow progress, but we are encouraged none the less! elida has also had good reports from her orthopedic surgeon (hips and bones are looking a okay!) yesterday, she got her first tooth. AND she can hold her head up on her own, which is transforming our lives - and hers - you can see how proud she is of being able to look around.

there is nothing quite like having a wee babe around for christmas. we are loving every second of it - even when the future seems unclear or scary. in each small moment - there is so much joy.

so to that - we say - repeat the sounding joy, repeat the sounding joy.
elida seth and amelea
