proud(and teary-eyed) mama!

this is what came home with emily yesterday!

i'm dying!  my baby actually WALKED!  she didn't just accidentally take a step...she didn't stumble and fall...she WALKED!

for the record, yesterday would have been my grandma's birthday.  i believe that she was helping emily from up above.  guiding her and holding her hand for each step that she took. 

its been a long, hard 3 1/2 years of unanswered questions, what-ifs, and wondering if it will ever happen.  yesterday that all faded away.

so proud.

  1. Oh no! Oh yes! Not sure how to respond because it's amazing news, but you didn't see it so not sure how you feel about that. Either way, it looks like a great accomplishment so congratulations to you and Emily.
