Last night, mom was in the kitchen and she looked in the family room and saw dad standing up from his wheelchair on his own. Mom panicked a little but dad stood there for a moment, straightened himself up good, and sat back down. he did it again today. Last Saturday when Wendy was working with dad on some exercises with some building blocks, dad said, "Wait a minute" and he lifted his arm towards his waist about 4 or 5 inches, today he lifted it to his waist. He is getting some movement in his fingers too. He is trying to get his hand into a fist, and he is making progress. Everyday, we are so excited for the new things he can do.
Yesterday dad and mom went to mom's uncle's funeral out in Roosevelt. While they were there they ran into one of their missionaries, Peter Butcher, who is a police officer out there. They had a wonderful visit with him.
