Pictures of the last week...

Our family....



Daddy and his girls....

What to do with a little girl that gets bored???

We love making things with these beads!

Blow bubbles!



Then the ice cream man comes!!!

Sunshine box.....a big thank you!!!

As you can tell, this little girl does not lack in gifts!!! But it is something she looks forward to getting after each wrapping. It was especially helpful when the wrapping was so intense. Now they are a breeze! The only thing we wrap is her shoulder!

Her burns keep improving......her chest we don't keep wrapped anymore. We keep it covered in creams to help the healing/scaring/itching. Her shoulder is taking the longest to heal, but it was also the deepest burn. Most of her shoulder is healed, except for a little part. It's just taken a while for the skin to come. On deep burns the skin heals from the outside in, instead of the inside up. And thats what has been happening to her shoulder burn. We see it getting smaller so we know its healing!

Another update...

Sara continues to improve.....but her nights are still about the same. ITCHY!!!! Phil and I take turns being up with her.We decided its about like having a baby again!!! But we know one of these days it will be all better....
Today we tried a different cream to try to relieve her itchiness. It seemed to help for a while. We couldn't wrap it the usual way, because this cream needs to breathe. So her burns got a lot of air today!
On a much brighter note, Sara had her first full body bath today. So you know her burns are healing when they can handle water. She had a grand time! And seemed more relaxed after it.
Now if only our little princess could sleep.......

Sara's face Un-Wrapped!!!

And taa daaa~ Her face, as of yesterday with no wrap!!! It has been amazing to see how quickly her pigment has come in. She is feeling soo free with her face not having to be wrapped. And acting quite like her crazy self again. So good for all of us to see!!!

She still has quite a bit of itchiness...nights still aren't the best. But we have soooo much to be thankful for....

My Mom and sister are here helping us....our church family is bringing in meals...and we have so many people praying for Sara's full recovery. Thank you so much for your prayers. We can't tell you enough how much they mean and ARE making a difference.
This morning our friends from Harrisonburg were here and saw Sara. They were so pleased with her progress and how her burns are healing. Her chest and shoulder are still tender and will need to be wrapped for some time, but her face. Wow! It's just a miracle!

All bangaded up from chest to head!!! We can't even begin to tell you all of the wonderful care and love we received from the poeple in Harrisonburg. They dropped everything, and took care of Sara and us!

This is Sara right after she was released from the hospital....we left for Harrisonburg soon after this.
