He Did It!!

Wade has been working hard with his therapists to learn how to go from a prone position to a sitting position.


Today when I went in to get him up from his nap, he was sitting up, just grinning away! That is the first time he has done it all on his own.


One more milestone down. Ninety-nine to go. We're having so much fun.

With cousins Carolina Sue & Landon... Who taught my boys to smile?

Fun with water balloons

All she does is work, work, work...from sunup to sundown

The cheerful one

Turning 4 is great because....

....you can decorate the cake yourself and then tell everyone how beautiful it is

....you can still blow out all the candles in one puff

....you don't have to make sense at all, and everyone still smiles benevolently

-- in other words when someone asks you what Curious George's name is, you can say with great confidence and authority, "Piglet!"

-- and when, before supper Mommy says, "Christopher, did somebody poke a finger into the birthday cake?" you can say fervently and charmingly, "I love you, Mommy, and I forgive you and I won't do it again!"

(Next time I need to apologize, I'm taking lessons from a 4-year old.)
