Luisa didn't get to have her 60th birthday in NOLA, but we did manage to have a few fun days before leaving because of Gustav. Now, she is sitting in my den watching tv because my parent's evacuated for Ike and are powerless for the time being.
She is doing great! Each time I see her I notice that she is improving with her conversation skills and initiating small things that you and I don't even realize we do every day. Walking is going fine, she is as slow as a turtle-but moving and that is what matters. Dad is going to try to enroll her in pilates to get her stretching more and moving more because she is very achy-I assume from not moving around a whole lot.
We are closing in on a year, I can't believe that, and on the anniversary I will close out this blog.
We hope all is well with you, especially anyone who has been effected by the crazy weather.
