Quick Update

Sarah has been doing very well. It seems like things are becoming routine (which is good) with her therapy, school, and other activities. She is back in aqua therapy again. She has done it before. It was short lived for a reason that I can’t remember.

She has decided she is going to be a cheerleader again and is going to cheerleader camp this summer. We told her that she will have to clap with both hands this year before we will let her cheer. Her leg is getting stronger all the time. She is starting to move faster and faster. A few weeks ago she was out front with her mom and sister playing and working in the yard. Sarah was playing hard and Kim saw her actually take off running (really running). It was brief but enough that Kim was shocked. I was out back mowing the grass so I didn’t get to see it.

I have mentioned this before, but when Sarah was in the hospital last summer one of her therapists told us that she would never be able to run again. At that moment I wanted nothing more than to prove him wrong. I am hoping that I will be able to post a video some day of her running.

 I have some pictures from aqua therapy but I haven’t had a chance to upload them. I should be able to get to it soon.

    It is wonderful to hear that Sarah is progressing so well. She is such a strong little girl (but, of course, that is expected with someone that has such dedicated and loving parents like she does). God truly has great plans for this child.

    I will be looking forward to the video of her running, and am very glad that she is proving the doctors wrong!! I’m sure she is going to make a beautiful little cheerleader also.

    Many Blessings to you all and, With God All Things Are Possible
