We have said it for 4 years. With Lucia having PKS we are always working towards this, that, sitting and more. We pray and dream of this, that, sitting and more.. Well... Our. Bird. Is. Sitting. Our Bird Sits. She sits! I remember it like it was yesterday. It was 1 week before her 2nd birthday. Lucia's physical therapist, Rebecca and I had been working on sitting weekly, daily. Lu sat for 10 seconds, then 30 seconds, with just the support of a boppy pillow. It was so great, such a celebration...and after those moments, her sitting has only lasted about 3-5 seconds here and there. Until!!! Last week when we were working on sitting, balancing with her arms she stuck it! First 30 seconds for the first few days, then up to 2 minutes. She uses her arms to help her balance, she sometimes even tries not to smile. I think she understands how to use her sweet body- legs, torso and arms to do this for a long time to come! Miracles do happen and I feel this is a Christmas miracle. I'm so happy. I'm so proud. I'm so over the moon every time I watch her little body sitting all on her own. Here's the first video of the record sit!
And here she is with her proud Candy.
Never give up.
Miracles happen.
Our bird sits.
I love you Lucia Elizabeth Dawkins.
God bless our little girls.
