February, 2005

I want to try and always keep this blog up and at least get one in a month. So, February.

• Valentines. Taylor always enjoys this. She decorates a box and loves to give something to each of her classmates - whether they like her or not. She is a kind and generous spirit.
• Of course, Daddy got her a special card and box of chocolates.
• She loves to call Mommy Britton more now. She misses her alot.
• Taylor loves Awana Club and is very good at memorizing Bible verses. Bill and I help out now every Wednesday night.
• Taylor is ever so slowly starting to do a little more with her daily routine. She has on a few ocassions gotten ready and partially dressed in the morning. That helps me out alot.
• She is getting so heavy (around 75 lbs) now for Bill to lift and even carry short distances. I don't know how much longer he can really do this. We really need a ramp going in and out of the house; but that costs too much. We have borrowed a wheelchair that helps get her to and from the bus for school.
• One good thing is she has been working on walking with her crutches during school.
• We have been told that two things have to come together: 1. her physical body growing up and 2. the mental desire to want to walk with the crutches. She is 10 years old now and still crawls most of the time - at least at home, it is the easiest for her.
