Wowwwwwww~ amazing kid you have there. This journey we are all on, it leaves me speechless sometimes as we see our children advance through all these theraputic experiences. It is pretty amazing to see a 2 y/o up on a horse. How may 2 y/os do you know who get to ride a horse?
Proud parent! Yahoo! Yippee! Moments like these are worth the sacrifices. Congratulations Julia and I are celebrating with you and Erik.
PS She wanted to know who the little boy was.
I am so proud, too!!!! :)))))))))
Love, Kati

SOO Cool!!! He sat up so straight and tall. I can't believe he's only two :)
I just had a first visit with my new doctor (Thanks for the recommendation. I told him about Erik and tried (lamely) to describe him. Dr. was very interested in Williams, and I'm always very eager to educate. His comment: "You are obviously a very proud grandmother!" Enough said.
I'm a very proud grandmother, and a very proud mom!
Love, Mom
Of course..you made me cry! I am so happy that Erik is doing Hippotherapy. I had so much fun when Abi did it. He looks so grown-up on that big horse!
