It only took a wheelchair, a gait belt (substituting as a seat belt) and a pack of fruit snacks to get this boy out in the sunshine yesterday. I set the timer on my phone to see how long he would make it. 22 minutes and 8 seconds. Not bad. Most of that time Josiah spent on the ground playing with his shiny purple beads. Some of that time he spent perched by the door, waiting and wanting to go back inside. None of that time was spent walking around or climbing the play structure or going down the slides. But it’s progress.
I spent most of that time snapping pictures. It only took 65 attempts to capture a good one.
And it is a very good one!
Thanks Liz! It’s a favorite for sure!
Wonderful picture of Josiah. Such a nice smile!
Thanks Beth! I absolutely LOVE this picture of him. It’s rare to get him looking towards the camera AND smiling at the same time, so this one is priceless!
