First birthday

So believe it or not my baby baby is going to be one on thursday. I just can't believe it. I mean first off I can't believe I had a pretty routine pregnancy, or that I had a pregnancy at all! Wow, what a miracle! And now my sweet girl that has filled our home with so much laughter (and so much poop) is going to be one. She's not the fastest little girl. I mean, she's not crawling and has just begun to be mobil (on her butt) because we would not dare dirty our knees. But she's oh, so cute! I tought her some sign language (I know, funny, right) so Thursday I'm having a little party for her. You know her name means hope right. I just think what a special thing, my little girl of hope. I guess this is notes from a mom, huh.
Summer

well finally I can write. My computer screen is jumbled up so it's been a while. This summer sure has been busy. So full of family and fun. I got to see my sisters individually and all together as a group. And to see my brother! Which was super, he even took me flying! Which was bizarre, because he's my baby brother, but oh so cool. When I first got sick it was his first year of flight training and now through all that happened, he kept on a developed into a steady and quality pilot and I finally got to experience part of it. Part of me wanted to shed tears of joy that we are finally at the point where i get to be part of it, it was just neat! Plus now that I have so little body control, I am just terrified of highest but I felt none of that fear while I was up with my brother, it was just so cool. I could go on and on about it, but I want tobshear about my therapy.
Ok, well in a strictly medical sense it's not therapy, but three days a week I work personally get to work out with a friend and on some mashines that really seem to be helping soon much. She really works me hard and I have needed that and now feel ready to really be working hard. One day a week I get some other "therapy" for my muscles and joints (I'm always afraid of libel stuff so I won't go into details. ) the point is i'm seeing some really really neat improvements. It's super exciting to me and even Jeremy is actually seeing this stuff. The biggest thing is my hamstrings, they finally are responding and I'm able to bend my legs like never before. My voice is actually better, I think my diafram is getting stronger,i'm able to do more around the house, even help cook. That pregnancy really set me back and I'm finally at the point where I'm able to focus more on this.I'm encouraged and filled with thanks to these people so invested in me though they get nothing out of it. Ok I'm writing this on my iPad so I don't know how to check my spelling, sorry, remember I grew up in italy so my spelling is terrible
