Today was overall ok. I am looking forward to when Claire goes in for another EEG. That is scheduled for this Friday. I am hopeful that she is on the mend. She definitely recognizes my voice and looks for me when she hears me. When she and I make eye contact sometimes it takes a moment of me talking but then it "clicks" and she gives a bashful smile. She is so very cute.
Tonight I was dancing in the kitchen with Madilyn and trying to show her normal slow dance positions with your hands and feet. Anyway, Ammon came in and did something I forgot all about. When Jan and I would say goodby after lunch or any other time she would normally walk me to the door and give me a hug and a kiss. During this moment Ammon would run up and wedge himself between us. It became a comical expectation that we would have company every time we hugged. This same situation occurred tonight but instead of my wife and I hugging it was Madilyn and me dancing. That one moment brought back a flood of memories that I had forgotten. I felt both happy and sad. I suppose a lot of my memories are happy and sad.
Here it is again ... past 10 pm and I just now have a quiet moment. I think I will have to do something early during the day if I want some 'me' time.
Well, I am off to bed. I'm missing Jan and her company. I'm missing our conversations.
