A "Normal" Year

My mighty warrior, Caeleb, just completed the fourth grade.  For most families moving from one grade to the next with their children is not a horribly big deal.  In our home this is a huge milestone this year.  Caeleb's fourth grade year has been the first year since Pre-K where he did not miss school because of bleeds and hospitalizations.  It has been the first year that he has attended school with no hemophilia incidents (just a few ear infections).  The. First. Year!

His reading and math scores have shot up, he has figured out how to relate to his friends socially and he has just had a wonderful year.  And to top it off, he has decided he is ready to learn how to self-infuse, so he is going to hemophilia camp in June.


Hemophilia was the center of our lives for quite a long time, and now it's not.  It's just part of our day.  That's our normal.

God is good.
