Lauren's first day of school

Lauren is finally a kindergartner. It was a very eagerly anticipated day for both Lauren and me. It seems just yesterday that we brought her home from the hospital. Unlike a lot of kids, it has taken a lot of work to get to this point.

We lived at the developmental clinic this past year hoping for some answers and solutions.

We have done countless hours of therapy. Her therapists have worked hard to get her to this point. Lauren has worked hard. Nothing comes easy for her. I often think that she sits and wonders what would be the easy way to do something and then does the exact opposite.




Here she is heading off on the big yellow bus
