Nate is doing so well - I'm almost afraid to keep talking about how well he's doing! Don't want to jinx it! He's back to driving his chair at school, the mall, church and doing great! He missed a couple of weeks of driving because of the weather, but it didn't seem to slow him down. His favorite was driving at the mall. I was so proud of him, since he'd never really driven in a place like that - mostly in gyms, outside where there is a lot of room. He showed me he definitely knows how to drive that chair. Except he did run into two people :) - no harm done!
He's loving school and doing better with his eye gaze. I think he prefers to use his voice sometimes more than the eye gaze. He likes to hear himself "talk", although we're not sure quite what he's saying. He has an appointment in a couple of weeks to get his eyes checked. We want to make sure that's not a problem and affecting his use of the eye gaze.
Owen and Nate are getting closer by the day. They have a lot of fun together. Owen is so sweet and helpful (except during his terrible two tantrums, which are coming more often these days)!
Since the holidays, I've been bad about picture taking. I'll try to get some posted soon.
Prayers to all the sick SMA kiddos, and the people of Haiti!
Thanks for checking in!
Jennifer
