I AM TURNING 2 TOMORROW...WAY TO GROW

Well this is it! My little guy is turning 2 tomorrow. He is not a baby anymore! Well he will always be my baby! He has been through so much and he is doing so well! He is doing great with his AFO's and he has been getting good at standing up. We are working on strengthening his legs so when he gets his gait trainer next month he will be ready to go! I know there will be no stopping him once he gets going. Oh what I wouldn't do to see him walk across the floor! He is getting around pretty good on his own when he is on the floor. We call him our lil "side winder" because he looks like a sidewinder snake when he scoots across the floor it is really cute to watch. It really goes back to all the doctors tell you when they say "your child will develop his own way of moving around and communicating" and boy has he! Terry is suck a special little guy and he brings happiness to everyone he meets and he loves whole heartedly. He always has a smile on his face and a hug to give to anyone who wants one! We are so happy he is turning 2 tomorrow, but I can't help but wonder where did all the time go? Has it really been 2 years... yes it has! And I know where all the time went it went to many many doctor appointments, 3 hospitalizations, 3 surgeries and many therapy appointments, but terry is doing well and has gained a lot from all we have to do! Through it all he still manages to smile! He really is an AWESOME KID! soon I will be posting pictures of his adventure to "DREAMCATCHERS RANCH" in Toano Virginia. He really loved being around all the horses and he already has a favorite...tatertot! it was really neat to watch him interact with the horses and see how gentle the horses were with him and how gentle he was with the horses! So COMING SOON: PICTURES OF TERRY AT THE RANCH. So please check back in a few days to See them.
