It's a BOY! and a GIRL!

It's official! We Rosenfeld's all have a new little brother and a baby sister!

First the little girl....we don't know which one yet and hope to get more pictures soon of her eyes open...
...and next our new little (okay, not so little) brother. And the best part is that Mark is a package deal...so we also have a new daughter/sister-in-law, Kate, and a new babe on the way!
Mark will begin working with Dad and Mom when they get home. He will head to Denver in a couple weeks to get training on Dad's new needs and then fly back the end of June to drive them home. This has been the best news. I do not know who to originally wrote, "People come into your life for a reason, a season, or a lifetime. When you figure out which it is, you know exactly what to do," but that seems to sum up Mark. He originally came with a specific reason, but, everyone knew exactly what to do, and now he, Kate, and the babe will be with us for a lifetime.

As for our new sister, she will fly in from Texas soon after Mom and Dad get home. She is a Coton de Tulear and will grow to about ten inches tall and about ten pounds...perfect for Dad's lap.

So, the rest of the good news...

Dad drove his "bus" (chair) with his hand for the first time on Thursday. It appears that the injections (given in his biceps to allow his elbows to straighten) worked and, after just one in the series of castings, his muscles were stretched enough and his arm pronated enough to allow him to drive. The geniuses at Craig will continue with the castings and soon work on improving the movement in his wrist.

The Bear family, Robin, Phil, and Mason, visited last week on their way home from Chelsea's graduation. I know it was a special visit and they all can't wait to catch up even more when Mom and Dad get home. I hope someone took pictures and I will get them up soon.

Jeremy and Andrew got to Denver yesterday...more father/sons bonding time. Jeremy will leave tomorrow but Andrew will stay until Wednesday. With the two of them there, hopefully I will get some pictures e-mailed soon (hint, hint!)

It has been a long journey but Mom discovered the quote that seems to sum up the situation the best...

"Impossible you say? Nothing is impossible when you work for the circus."

Love and blessings to you all....
