Family Day

These past couple of days have been pretty tough on me so yesterday we decided to just have a family day. :) I was perfect. Even though we went to the beach and it was closed, we quickly decided on going to a different lake. We spent about an hour just sitting on the edge of the lake letting the Zs play in the water. It was a day I definitely needed and had been needing for some time.

We came home and right away Zion asked to get in his wheelchair. :) That almost never happens! BUT yesterday morning we came up with the idea of getting one of his bigger bouncy balls and cutting a hole in it and putting it on his joystick. He is obsessed with bouncy balls so this was a great idea! :) He is now LOVING his power chair!

He can get outside by himself!

He is so incredibly smart and can get ANYWHERE when he's in his powerchair! It looks big and bulky (well, it IS big and bulky :)), but somehow he can weave in and out of things like you would not believe! I am so proud of him and how determined he is! SMA will NOT limit what he can do, we just have to find a different way for him to do it :)
