Update

Wow it’s been a minute. Grand baby #1 is two & has a little brother who is 5 months old.  Grand baby #3 is due early Aug after a 5 year unexplained infertility issue for my son and his wife.

I’ve had major medical issues and have been out of work for 3 months and it appears I probably won’t recover fully.

Emily is 9 now. She’s really starting to make more weight bearing on her legs/ knees so we had to put a tent over her medical crib so she won’t climb out. She has zero safety awareness.

David will start K this fall with Semira  as they are both 5 now. It’s been tough for me to figure out when and how to let him go to school but it’s time. Semira is taking, potty trained and finally riding the school bus. We still struggle with sensory issues but she’s come so far.

Malachi is a struggle, he has hypotonia and severe nonverbal autism with stimulation behaviors of extreme self harm. So far therapy is not working and the doctors aren’t exact sure how or with what to treat. 4.5 year old who despite a helmet can still split his head open or rub the skin on his nose from banging his head into the floor. He will finally start pre-K this year as we have gotten the vomiting and aspiration under control, that used to be part of the fit.

So much change, so much going on.
