Very lucky

Lately I have been feeling so lucky. Not as in good luck, but gratitude. 

Ally is doing really well. At school she is playing at recess, 4 Square before school and at mid day recess! This is amazing!!!! Playing voluntary at school! Something most kids do just as a matter of life and now after many many months Ally is too! 

She is caught up mostly academically. She isn't taking any pain breaks out of class now, and on her last math test did fantastic. 

She has 4 birthday parties this month. So clearly her time out of school and her health issues haven't hurt her social connections.

I am thankful for family and friends who support us. For good jobs that enable us to have amazing experiences and plan fun vacations. 

And as my 9 year anniversary of being Ally's mom comes around this month, I am so grateful to be her mom, to have the privilege of parenting her with Becky. 

So much love and laughter.


The look on Ally's face when we told her that her gymnastics idols, Gabby Douglas, Ali Raisman and Simone Biles were all going to be competing at a big meet we had tickets to see.


Another new outfit from Great Aunt Martha! thank you.


Silly smile in new sunglasses.
