The secret Pal hit again yesterday. Each of the kids got a flameless candle nightlight that projects cool images. Last night was the first night in a long long time that all of our kids were able to sleep upstairs in their rooms. Normally they sleep on the couchs, beanbags, and downstairs bedroom together. Luke has been sleeping with Michelle and I in our bed with us when he allows us to have some room. This was a big step. They were able to do this because Samantha can walk some with her new brace and Tyler has been able to walk more. Some of our worry has always been Tyler's ability to make the bathroom or call for help(can't yell or talk well). Tyler is older and it is not as scary for either of us because we know he will take care of whatever arises at night now.

Tyler has been going to school without using his wheelchair. I am sure that it is difficult for him and he gets tired by the end of the day.

Samantha went to school today and never used her wheelchair. She was able to walk all day with her new brace.

Luke was able to do a backflip onto the beanbag three times without me catching him this morning. He apologized for making me scared. Little chump thinks he is bullet proof.

I get to review the proposals from the University of Florida's marketing class on how to promote Tyler's Hope. The presentation are tomorrow and I am excited to hear how we can expand our foundation.

Carpe Diem
