A Day At Home for Recovery

Before Jaelyn woke from her surgery in pain, I had imagined a cozy happy day of staying home from work on Thursday, but I mentally revised my plan to imagine hours and hours of cuddling and comforting.

The good news? Thursday was both: hours of cuddling and chatting, but without intense pain; at one point Jaelyn even successfully cajoled me to share a short outdoors walk bundled up for the freezing, blindingly snowy sunlight, chatting and laughing and promising each other that we would never forget how happy we both felt: what a perfect day and moment we had shared.
