The flood gates are open!

Now that we have broken through Thomas's fear of waving to people and having him see them wave to him, he wants to wave at everyone!  We took a walk the other day and he waved to 11 different people along the way.  He would get upset when someone wouldn't wave back.  Ha!  The irony!  If you are a parent of a child with SM, you truly appreciate the little things that so many other parents take for granted.  A child waving is usually an everyday thing, but to see Thomas actually using his hand to wave was amazing and truly made my year already!  There are so many struggles with this disorder, but watching your child over come a fear and break through that barrier that has been holding them back is truly such an amazing feeling!
