She edged her way along the side of the bath the other week in a desperate need to get the plug and throw it in the bath.
Then and this is even better, we were at my MIL's and she was at the bath again (this is where she does her most confident standng and where it all started) she edged along the bath clutching MIL's toothbrush and I was sat on the loo,(seat down btw!) and inbetween me and the bath was the bidet, so I turned it on. Lottie let go of the bath with one hand, held onto the bidet and sort of manouvered herself to the bidet, all on her own!
Then yesterday she was standing watching daddy have a bath, and I was sat on the loo (seat down again!) and she got herself so she was standing at the sink!
Big steps for my nearly 4 yr old bum shuffler. Watching the struggle was a massive tug at the heart strings, so, so proud of her.
Maybe, just maybe she will walk by the time she starts school in Sept 2006? I do hope so, I'd hate to have to carry her in on her 1st day at school. I want to stand with the other mums and watch my little girl walk off into that school.
I had a dream that she was walking the other day. It was just a straightforward nothing dream but I realiseed after that lottie had been walking in it
Here are some suggested organisations that offer expert advice on special needs.
