michelle..

i wasn't trying to be sad.. unconciously i suppose..

lol... grace is actually doing much better.. her PT

instructions seem to be helping.. i have been really

working with her on her balance.. so i know it will be

soon.. i am a little concerned about her left foot

though.. and i am glad that we take her to see dr

dobb's next week.. it's still doing really wonderful

but is tighter than the right foot.. so i have been

really concentrating on the left foot with her

stretches more than the right.. hoping to make it more

flexible.. so we'll see what he says.. how is sam

doing with her walking? i bet it's making you catch

your breath!!
