Every day is a blessing

Maddie is doing so much better now. Her seizures have gone to what we call drop attacks, she drops her head quickly and looses her balance but even these are fading away day by day. God is Great!! She is progressing more every day and we are so very proud of her. She is so strong and such a motivation to me and anyone that meets her. She is eating food with a spoon three times a day, and drinking lots of juice. We are still working on getting her to drink plain water, and believe you me she knows the difference, smart girl. She now holds her arms up to be picked up and of course it works 'cause she is so cute and I can't resist, ha ha what can I say, I know she is spoiled. I waited a long time for her to use those arms and reach for me and it warms my heart every time she does. She is learning how to hold her bottle (which is a HUGE milestone) and I am tickled with joy. We are in the process of getting her a gate trainer, which will teach her to walk, but as for now we are just taking things day by day, one blessing at a time. She smiles all the time and is just the best baby, she is such a joy and I truly am blessed to be at home with her, she is my little companion, and I wouldn't have it any other way. Anyway, that's all for now, enjoy the photos below of some of her recent milestones. Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers! :-)
