Dancing in the Rain

Well everyone is much better around here. Bill went to work for the first time today. Luckily it was a short day for him so he was able to come home and rest. His leg is much better but he is still healing and still on antibiotics. He as a little chest cold but other than that he is doing fine and was very happy to get out of the house finally after over a week at home.

Olivia is doing great. She is being transitioned into the next class at school (18 to 24 months). Her teacher Ms. Carrie is not happy that she will be moving on. They adore each other and she has been with Olivia since she started in February. She has done a great job with Olivia and we are so thankful she was there with Olivia every step of the way. Olivia will still be able to see her as the classrooms are right next door to each other so I am sure there will be visitations. I will miss chatting with her on drop off and pick up. she was always very good at sharing stories about Olivia's day. It seem like yesterday that I was dropping her off for the first time, I didn't cry until I left the building and got in my car, and here it is 7 months later and she loves school and is moving to the next class.

Speaking of firsts....Olivia played in the rain for the first time!!! She loved it. It was raining pretty lightly and it was nice and warm out. I thought she would just stand in the garage and look at the rain but instead she wanted to go out and stomp around in it. There weren't any puddles but she managed to make little splats on the wet driveway in her bare feet. She had a blast and didn't want to come in.

I love watching her experience things for the first time...it is just pure heaven.
