Katie's Speech Therapy Appointment

We finally have a date for Katie's speech therapy: December 2nd! A friend recently asked if we were worried about Katie not talking yet. In general, we are not worried. She actually communicates quite a lot through pointing, grunts, expressions, and sign language. She is also very physically capable with great coordination. She loves people (not at all shy like her sister) and plays "well" (for her age) with other kids. All of these point to nothing being wrong with her. Yet the doubts can sneak in and it is easy to be concerned that she is not saying words. It will be good to have this appointment!

Also please pray for my Dad. He's at the doctor's office right now...I'm patiently waiting for an update. It seems he may have pneumonia again. It would be the 4th time since March if he does. Obviously as a family we are quite concerned.
