So cute! I love that she wanted to go to McDonalds. That is why childhood is so sweet; McDonalds actually makes you happy!

Congrats to Darsie and to you Mama! It blows me away that you have 3 kids, and now one in school! You're such a great mommy!

Just checked in on you guys. CRAZY how the passage of time changes with babes, babes and more babes. I'd love to talk to any parents out there about the feldenkrais that we've been doing with Owen since last Fall. He's changed more in the last few months from this than he did in 2 years of PT. http://www.anatbanielmethod.com/cerebral-palsy-treatment.htm. Please pass my name/info on to anyone who might be interested. There is an amazing practitioner in Port Townsend and one on Bainbridge Island that we see. The focus of feldenkrais is to turn movements, some random and without purpose, into useful, constructive movements and it has made such a change in Owen.

I'll be interested to see how Baclofen works for Darsie as we have a bottle in the medicine cabinet for Owen. I've just not found the opportunity (or courage) yet to titrate one of his meds used for spasticity, in order to start this medication. I assume it is oral baclofen?

Let's get the families together once the weather improves (i.e. not constantly pouring down rain) for a picnic. I miss the girls and want to see how much Bert has grown!

xo to all
