February: Rose continues to impress us with her abilities! In February we decided it was time to get her walking. Her therapist, Ms. Margot, brought over a gate trainer for her to try. She’s taken to it easily, we’re so proud of her.

Rose 18 months old
Friday, March 31st, 2023
March 29: Rose is 18 months old now, what a year and a half it has been! The last several months she has made so many leaps in her physical abilities. She finally started rolling from her back which gives her some mobility on the floor. She can scoot around on her bottom, lay down and then get back into a sitting position now as well. All of this changes so much for what she can explore. She also working hard on standing up with her AFOs on, she stands stationary in a “stander” to build bone strength and she’s getting slightly better at moving a bit in her baby wheelchair. She’s a happy girl, so strong. We’re so thankful for her!

July 16: “If thou tastest a crust of bread, thou tastest all the stars and all the heavens.” Rose…ok Robert Browning said that but Rose does not disagree. We quickly learned how to make Rose happy, give the girl a baguette!

July 10: In March Phil was approached with an opportunity to attend John Warwick Montgomery’s International Academy of Apologetics, Evangelism & Human Rights that’s held in July in Strasbourg. With tuition and airfare paid for it seemed like a gift too great to pass up.
Then in May things changed with Rosie and leaving her in the care of someone else was not going to work. So it was either cancel the trip or take Rose. After a lot of thought and checking with her doctors we decided to take Rose. We didn’t know how it would go but we wanted to try to make the best of it and enjoy this new kind of adventure. We also prayed a lot that she’d stay healthy.
