Adventure

I was sitting at my computer, checking facebook, when the Dancing Queen walked by with the stool in her hand, saying she needed to go upstairs to get the old dog. What could she be up to?

I followed.

She pointed to the treasurer she needed.

Then I remembered the penny she had found! She needed the old dog bank.

She carried the old dog downstairs, until the cork fell out.

DQ decided to put the coins away on the stairs.

I thought it was safer at the table.

She continued to put coins into the bank for quite a while. We love this activity because it helps work her fine motor skills. DQ is still very behind in fine motor skills in part due to her overall weakness, but also because of her long, gracile fingers associated with her 22q deletion.

What a fun adventure!

Having a child with a CHD is like being given an extra sense---the true ability to appreciate life. Each breath, each hug, each meal is a blessing when you've watched your child live off a ventilator, trapped in an ICU bed, being fed through a tube. Each minute is a miracle when you've watched your child almost die and come back to you.
