As I watch Quinn sleep, I still feel so blessed to have such a beautiful, wonderful, amazing daughter, and I'm so grateful for her! Thanks God!



What a week. Quinn made it to school all four days! Yeah for that! Her nurse however only made it three days, as she broke her leg, in 3 places to top it off, so we send prayers out to her. Here they were into such a great groove together, but our sub nurse showed up today, and lucky for Quinn, she knew her from being one of her nurses at school in the past. That was nice. So prayers for Joleen to heal up.

Our other exciting news, as is obvious from the pictures above is her 2nd trip to the dentist. Dr. Scott is so wonderful with Quinn. Quinn bit her once, but after she figured out what was going on, she did great! She did not love the floride or polish, as she is showing that she did not want a picture taken at all!

Quinn is feeling good, sleeping all night, at least for the last 3 nights, so let's keep that going. She is working hard at therapy and is so loose, which is good.

We got results back from the Children's Developmental Clinic. She does have a curve in her back, 23 degree, that was not a surprise to us, and is common in kids that are not mobile, but nothing to worry about yet. Her seizure meds are good, her levels are all good, and we have to keep an eye out for her iron levels, they are a bit on the low side, but mine are too, so that is not a huge surprise. Over all, great results.

We got some pictures from Miss Rachel from school, and the pictures tell the whole story. You can tell that Quinn is loving school, and that is something I am so grateful for.




Finally I went to see a speaker at Bryan Hospital on Thursday night, on Parenting Children with Special Needs. http://www.thehaliproject.org/index.htm I went thinking it was going to be information on where to go and what to do, but instead he was basically a motivational speaker. My bucket was refilled that night, and it was wonderful. Their website actually does not do justice to how great he was. I've got all kinds of information to share, but I'm in need of a nap, so I'll share tidbits soon.
