Daniel is thoroughly enjoying school. He loves going on the bus and from the daily reports we get, it appears he is almost always smiling and having a great time at school. Really nothing more that a parent could ask for.
As for Daniel's mobility, well that is moving along (no pun intended). He still scoots around the house (very fast I may add) and he can stand with assistance. Yesterday in his daily report, we found a note asking us to set up a time to meet with the wheelchair vendor. This has struck a chord with me. It is not that we all don't believe that someday Daniel will walk, because we do. It is more that he is not walking now and the bigger he gets (and he is a big boy) the harder it is to move him and truthfully no stroller is big enough for him.
I realize all of this and if it were anyone else's child I would encourage those parents to make themselves and their child more comfortable. But it is not anyone else, it is us and it is Daniel. Jason--ever the positive one in this relationship reminded me that it is not a life sentence and that one day Daniel will walk. My biggest fear is that Daniel will think we are giving up on him. We are so not! The last thing we would ever do is give up on our boy. Our boy who will one day very soon be walking around and tearing the place up.
