That day seems familiar, but I can't put my finger on it.... Oh what could it be?!

DONUT SHOP

i walked into the donut shop today with mom, no wheelchair or nothing just moms arm to hold on to. also last monday at therapy i walked on the treadmill at a very slow speed for about 5 min. i am very excited!!! bye :]

IT WON'T BE LONG!!!!!!

Ivy has been working really hard all summer with therapy four times a week. It is soooooo paying off now. She has also put on a bit of weight. When she was released from the hospital last May, she weighed a whooping 97 pounds. She is now 109 and her muscles are really beginning to show. I hope you enjoy this as much as we did. Many, many happy tears after this accomplishment.

Sketch

Ellen and I are moving, and over the course of packing I found this old sketch I did of Ivy, oh, I'd say at least 12 years ago. I always liked it for some reason, and included it in the porfolio that got me accepted into art school. I had completely forgotten about it, so it was a nice suprise when to stumble upon it. Ivy probably doesn't remember it at all.
