Grace continues to do very well in school. I got to pick her up this last week because we had morning practice, and it was great to see her out at recess with all the other kids. While she's obviously limited in terms of using playground equipment, her Dani lets her be pretty much as mobile as the other kids. She's very social, and all the kids would run over and say bye to her when we left. Her teacher told us last week that she was the first kid in the class to know everybody else's name and to call the principal by name.
On a sadder note, she's been asking a lot lately again about when she'll be able to crawl and walk. For some reason she's been trying to crawl at home the past week, and it's hard for us to see her struggling. We always try to stress to her the things she can do, and we also have to remember that she's much better off than many, many SMA kids. We pray that Grace will come to understand and thrive with her condition, but we also pray for the Type I kids who don't get to be as healthy as Grace.
