But she can DANCE!

Frequently Sweet K blesses me.
I watch her, life spinning around her, with her sweet smile and I ask her, ask myself....
"Do you know how beautiful you are?"

Just this afternoon, she wandered into the living area after her rest time. Hearing Older Sister's music playing, she starts dancing away. Not wild or exuberant, but honest and sincere all the same. Spinning in a circle, arms held high, a glorious smile on her face. A ballerina on her own stage.

Milestones are a challenge. It isn't always easy. We find it hard, sometimes, to keep perspective.
We don't jump (yet!!).
Running is in the process of becoming more graceful.
Some day, we'll get on a bike and ride like the wind.

But, she can DANCE.
And it is beautiful!
