Thanks SOOO much for all your comments, I treasure them. Thanks for your support, we couldn't survive without it. Kaleen
It is so awesome to hear all of Alex's accomplishments!! I am glad he got to attend the airport dedication. I wish we would have gone!
ReplyDeleteI've never made a comment, b/c you all don't know me and figured you might not care too much about hearing from someone you don't know, but if comments mean that much to you, then maybe I should comment! I am a friend of Presha's and have been following Alex and Dane's progress since the strike. I pray for them often, as has my little girl. I am so happy for you all and the progress the boys have made! We will definitely keep you all in our prayers!
ReplyDeleteSuch wonderful news!I am sure that it took lots of hard work for that progress. Great job Alex! I can't wait to meet you. Kaleen, I hope to see you very soon! ~<3 janie

ReplyDeleteHi , I don't know either of the young men but still find I enjoy reading about their progress , I live in upstate Ny , Palmyra area ,so far away, but find reading the post by both moms . i am thrilled to hear the progress .
ReplyDeleteYou're doing so well! I will fall over with delight the day someone announces that you can run. At the rate you're going, Alex, I am certain it will happen sooner than anyone expects.
ReplyDeleteNow that St. George is accessible by jet aircraft everyone that reads this blog will want to hop a flight to meet all of you in the flesh. Through this blog some of us readers and commenters feel like you're part of our family! Now you're just a hop and skip away.
Groovy!
That is so fantastic and feels my heart with joy!
ReplyDeleteGreat news Kaleen, The progress Alex is making is amazing. I really appreciate the physical therapy "score" as it helps to have a standard to guage his progress. Thoughts and prayers from AZ :)
