Miss Mia

Ok- this afternoons session is exactly the reason we traveled for 2 days, spent all this money, lived in another country for 3 weeks, etc. Mia stood up with only support at the thighs for 11 seconds. It might not sound like a big accomplishment to most people, but for me, its like a miracle. This is the bonus of being a parent of a special needs child- every accomplishment, however small, is the biggest celebration. The longer you have to wait for it, the sweeter it is. I almost cried. Ramon was soooo happy and proud of her. He said - this is the beginning- first its hands on thighs, then knees then ankles, then independence. I am going to hve a pisco sour to celebrate!
