Life over on the island is going really good. Ambz and I are loving it and Elijah is too.
Elijah is doing really well. His eating has improved big time! He is eating all three meals most days and he is more or less finishing each one. This is a BIG improvement from what he was eating before we came over to Orama.
His ears have cleared up which is great. We are not giving him any liquids orally though just to make sure his ears stay clear. When we give him milk orally it gets his ears all wet and then they get infected and full of gunk so we are staying as far away from that at the moment as we can cause ear aches suck!
So the milk we are giving him at the mo goes straight in through his mikey button which for those of you who dont know is a little plug that goes straight into his stomach, we just hook up a special line and basically funnel milk down.
he is crawling all over the show now too. Its a lot of fun to watch cause he is learning to explore and check stuff out. We can tell that he loves it cause he is quite independent and likes to do stuff on his own so now with his new found mode of transport he is definitely making the most of it! Tonight we had another awesome worship night over here and we have a hand drum called a Djembe which was lying on the ground. Elijah made his way over to it and started banging it with his head! Quite a sight! haha.
It shouldnt be long and he'll be walking. Hopefully sooner rather than later cause he is getting heavy!
We would love to upload some more recent photos but unfortunately the internet over here on the island is really expensive, so we will have to wait until we are back on the mainland which will be mid June.
We are back during June for a number of hospital appointments that Elijah has and then after that we are looking forward to making our way around New Zealands first Levitical Ministry Hubs! These are things that the students of our school will be starting.
Anyways, if you have any questions or wanna hear something more specific feel free to email us at joshklink@gmail.com.
Look forward to hearing from you!
God Bless,
Josh, Ambz and Elijah
