March 30...Well just like yesterday, I should start off with another birthday wish:
HAPPY BIRTHDAY NIKKI!!!
My sister's are only a day apart with there birthdays, I used to think they were SO lucky. But I like my lonely September birthday...I'll stick with it for now :)
In other news, we visited another park today. One I NEVER would have found by myself, it was way way hidden in some neighborhood I didn't even know existed. This city is so crazy...you think you have pretty much seen it all, but then you go down a side street and it branches out like there is no tomorrow. We have a lot of exploring to do, and I think we are making up ground very quickly now! A friend of my mom's has a daughter who coincidentally lives Clarksville. She, coincidentally has a daughter who went through another version of a misshapen skull, like Averi. Moira is 2 now and when she was 7 months she had to have the surgery to re-separate her skull bones that had prematurely fused together. Our moms exchanged phone numbers for us and we were able to get into contact, which was really great for me, to have someone who knows what we are about to go through. We decided to meet to today at her favorite park, a little gem that is fairly empty because it's so hidden. Kelly and I hit it off really well and will probably become pretty good friends, her daughters Maggie (4) and Moira absolutely LOVED seeing the baby, and they got along great with Cael. It was nice to see him play with Moira because they are only 8 days apart and I think she is the first actual girl friend he has had. When it was time to come to the picnic table for their snack, Moira instinctively grabbed Cael's hand and he was stunned...but he went with it. They looked so cute, I took like 15 pictures of them just walking.
Derrick, I know you would have loved to have been there today to see them, but I hope you know that even if Cael doesn't bring his daddy doll, you are with us every single minute of every single day. We don't have a single though without you in it :) I love you and could not be more proud to call you my husband.
