It's been a pretty busy September. We spent last weekend in Des Moines and participated in the Beaverdash, which is a 5K run that is the annual fundraiser for the Iowa Families of Spinal Muscular Atrophy. Despite the cold and rain we had a good time, and it was great to see all the other Iowa families, if only for a short time. They have a wheelchair race for the SMA kids after the 5K, and Grace got 2nd place! She actually referred to herself as second winner, which sounded good to us.
Kindergarten continues to go very well for Grace. Friday morning she was telling me all the things she loves about school, and it was a long list. We need to give a special shoutout to "Mr. Troy the Janitor" who replaced a screw in the part that holds her battery on her Standing Dani. In the process of playing tag at recess Grace had run over a big stick that somehow loosened the screw and caused the battery to fall off.
Grace has her annual appointment with the Iowa City people in Sioux City on Monday. They come to town once a year, then we go there once a year. Hopefully everything will check out o-kay, she's been doing very well health-wise.
