September 12 was a big deal at for our family--well, at least for Brian and I. It marked the anniversary of my hip replacement. It was a really, really hard. Hard on me emotionally (coping with a new normal, losing a piece of my bone, closing chapters on certain activities, and other things), physically (the doctor sliced right through the biggest muscle group in my body, drove a metal spike into my bone, and cut a piece off of said bone), and mentally (can I really climb that flight of stairs?). And it was also really hard on Brian too. He had to take on a lot of the things that I do--which is a lot! Well, to commemorate this day, I wanted to do something physical. Originally, I wanted to go on a hike or something, but it was a school night, and we had limited time. So, we grabbed dinner and headed to the Children's place to climb around in the Monkey area.
I crawled through the dark tunnel with Michael:
It felt so good to be able to climb and play with my kids. Thank you everyone who helped us make it through this really tough year!
