They took the staples out on Thursday and he said he almost instantly felt better without them pulling at his skin. He's walking more and is going up the stairs once per day. So yay. He's moving along in his progress.
Joey is in finals week at school and had an interesting final assigned in his literature class. He read a novel and could select any of a number of creative exercises. He turned down doing a painting.. silly boy.. but instead wrote a series of letters between two of the characters of the book.
The novel is In the Time of Butterflies, and here's the letters he wrote, on the stationary he designed for them.. The characters are sisters who fought for revolution in the 50's in the Dominican Republic.
He used some of the code that the girls used in the book in his letters. Shoes were ammunition and Pineapples meant grenades.
These are the envelopes we made too... Well.. the printed part. He scored them, folded and put adhesive on the flaps.

I taught him how to tie a ribbon around the stack of letters. He may have to open them and read them to the class. if he does.. then I wanted him to be able to tie them back up to give to the teacher for grading.
