Logan took his first steps!!!

Logan took his first steps to me last night! I knew he was getting close because he has been trying to walk for such a long time now. We were actually outside playing in the front yard when it happened. He was unstoppable once he figured it out! He seemed to do really well walking in the grass and on the driveway....maybe it's better support out there than inside on the slippery tile. Plus, there was nothing for him to hold onto so he just figured it out! Anyway, just wanted to share this good news that brought a smile to my face. A much needed smile after the past week we have had. By the way, thanks to all of you for caring so much for my little Leah this week. We really appreciate the thoughts, prayers, phone calls, cards, emails, and visits! It helped make a tough week more bearable. Leah stayed home Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday and the plan right now is for her to return to school on Monday and get her permanent cast Monday after school. Her friends from school made her cards which she absolutely loved! I think she is ready to get back to school to see them all. The neighborhood kids that she plays with outside regularly have been extra sweet to her as well. They have made her cards everyday and surprised her with flowers yesterday. They (including Lauren) even created a show and had Leah come outside so that she could sit and watch their performance. I know that made her feel really good. My good friend Leeann brought her son, Hudson, over Thursday night to deliver some beautiful flowers for Leah and yummy cookies for both girls. He is the most adorable little boy and was so sweet. I tried to get a few good shots of him giving her the flowers, but Leah was not too thrilled to be having her picture taken. We are now praying for a speedy recovery for our sweet girl. She has been a real trooper this week - I am so proud to be her mom!
