After getting dressed, we had a 9AM in home appointment, and then at noon our once-a-week in home occupational therapy. Lucia is tracking! Tracking, meaning she moves both eyes to follow something. We have been working on this and our amazing therapist, Kristen Frank, held Lu today and moved Lu and her eyes kept on her, the therapist! If the object doesn't move but she moves, her eyes move. Right now she's not quite ready for the object to move and still track. Awesome Little Lu- sooooo proud of you!
Smiles, smiles and more smiles, tracking and pretty dresses...what more could happen?
Well, about 4PM I got a text message from my mom saying...
"Loves Lu's pic in Grandma Elly dress! Happy Birthday Mom! She would have been 86 today...Sure miss her!"
I couldn't believe it when I read this. I knew we picked out this dress for a reason. I do not remember birthdays and had no clue it was my Grandma Elly's birthday when I put that dress on Lu. That is the second time she has worn that dress since the day my mom gave it to me, 2 months ago... Love you Grandma Elly. So happy to have you as my Grandma and Little Lu can't wait to meet you in Heaven someday.
Night Night Grandma Elly, Happy Birthday to You!
Love,
Lu, her mommy and daddy
