Miss Eva

Dear Eva,

Sorry your birthday letter is a little late. This mama has been crazy busy and needed some time to spend writing you this letter. You turned three, yes three. You have amazed everyone from day one with your courage, strength and determination. Your spunky and sassy and full of life. Your such a blessing, everyone adores you and thinks your one strong girl. We celebrated your day with a mermaid party and lots of friends and family. You adore being the center of attention and you got that on your special day. Your big gift this year was getting your casts off, followed by a long bath. You loved being free to run and jump and to explore your new feet. I am so proud of you and of all the amazing things you do. You have turned your challenges into strengths and have never let them slow you done (literally).
Never forget your inner strength and fighting spirit. Meet your struggles head on and never let anything stop you. I love you so much. Your my mini me. Thanks for letting me see the world each day through your eyes. I am one lucky mommy.

Love,
Mommy

Rewind...

I feel like I have had the rewind button hit on my life. Eva and I made a trip to Spokane to visit Shriners and to get a check up of her feet. I sat in the room feeling like I had some how been transported back to her newborn days, those days of many appointments, cast changes and Dr's telling me she is can handle all this and will do great. Well, we hit rewind and all of that is happening once again but not to my little newborn daughter but to my almost three year old. She is back in casts. Big heavy clunky smack you in the leg and your dying kinda casts. One pink one purple. She is happy and doing amazing, she lugs those big casts all around the house. No walking yet but a whole lot of army crawling. She has a wheel chair but they would like her to try to get up on them and to walk (this will help, lengthen the tendent's). She is a trooper and the other kids think it is pretty awesome that we have a wheelchair a tiny walker and two funky casts to drawn on. I will be spending every other Friday shuttling her up to Spokane and back home. We have listened to a ton of Adele and she has played way to much angry birds on the way up and back.

I guess hitting rewind is not to bad, this to will pass and it will make her future much better. I get to have a big baby to lug about and I get to spend my shopping trips and Sundays explaining to concerned on lookers that she did not have a terrible fall but that these are just corrective.

Rewind baby, Rewind.
