Hurray! Dononvan's Watching Thomas!

The true test of the day is the fact that Donovan is doing great, resting comfortably and watching his favorite, Thomas the Tank Engine DVD. He came out of the sedation very well and it has taken us since 2:30 to get settled into the room. It is now 4:45pm and Bridget is down getting her first bite to eat (other than the muffins we brought). The staff is taking very good care of us.

Donovan has his own private room with a view of three larger crankies (tower construction cranes) that are working on several building projects near the hospital! He is already talking to and charming, the entire staff to be under his complete control. His teacher from new community, Mrs. Conchrin, stopped by to check in on us and visit one of her favorite students.

We are now settling into the routine of the hospital and glad the day is near an end. Bridget will stay with Donovan tonight and I will head home to stay with Emma and Carl. Sandi, our wonderful daycare provider, picked the kids up from school and friends and will be with them until I get home. So all is well for know and we will keep you posted. Our little guy is being very brave, not complaining and happy watching Dora, singing with the music.

Wow - it has been a long day for all of you! You were in our thoughts all day and we are so pleased that it went well and that it is over now. Give Donavon a big hug and a kiss from us.
