progress and updates

We recently had Josiah's iron retested, and it was still low.  I was finally able to find some hypoallergenic iron tabs he could take, and even located some children's multivitamins with no additives that he could handle.  It's a good thing this little boy can swallow pills!

I'm not sure if it's the vitamins, but once again I see progress.  There is less anxiety (that could be the iron), he's more open to new foods, and he's maturing before my very eyes (that could be normal!) 

Micah has missed 39 days of school this year, confirming our decision to homeschool for the coming year.  We think we've finally found his trigger: dairy.  During this 4-day weekend we're trying gluten again and so far, he's doing well.

Rachel has been healthy for months now, and her shoulder pain has been gone for several weeks.  This weekend she's trying some cheese with lactaid and so far, she's doing well.

Perhaps we're on the road to healing.
