Noah turned 4 in January but I could not pass the Noah turned 4 in January but I could not pass the opportunity to share how much progress he has made! He has made so much progress this last year, his motor skills are VERY close to age level. And despite a diagnosis of Apraxia of Childhood he works tirelessly At communication and is the most social little boy. Full of love, life and compassion, Noah is pure sunshine. Determined to be independent he definitely keeps us on our toes but his smiles and laughter bring immense joy to all who meet him. To know Noah is to love him. 
Noah’s favorites include playdoh, lollipops, cars, legos, music, and art. 
Dislikes include sleeping in and anything that make him feel unsafe.

Isabella was a little uncertain about Santa this year. She LOVED talking to him but didn’t want to sit on his lap for more than 30 seconds. Noah on the other hand was his biggest fan. Luke is learned why all the Santa’s look different 😅
All my life my heart longed for a baby girl. This All my life my heart longed for a baby girl. This precious girl has changed and grown our family in all the best ways. I can hardly remember what life was like without her strong firey personality in it.
Motherhood has been hard, so incredibly challenging, but it is also the most incredible journey I have ever been on!

Just last week we were making leaf piles and wearing shorts. Now we hide in doors under blankets and search for ways to entertain tiny balls of energy. 
Sweet Isabella woke up in the wee hours with her first stomach bug. My heart breaks for her. What are your favorite ways to heal upset tummies? And to entertain siblings stuck indoors?
It has been a busy week! Luke started 1st grade an It has been a busy week! Luke started 1st grade and Noah returned to his special needs preschool (he goes 2 days/wk). 

This year I really struggled with the decision between homeschool and public school. For so many reasons my heart lies with homeschooling, but in the end we chose to let the boys choose and they both desired to be with their friends in public school. 

What type of schooling have you chosen for your kids and why?
As the parent of a child with a rare medical diagn As the parent of a child with a rare medical diagnosis, going to the doctor is very uncomfortable. While Noah is doing extremely well his specialist ends all her sentences with phrases like “for now” or “at the moment”. It’s like she refuses to even hope that he will thrive. Yes, realistic expectations are important, but the facts are that Noah’s genetics are exceptionally rare and nobody knows what he will accomplish. 
So today I choose joy, joy that he is still with us, joy that he is catching up in every way, and JOY that I am blessed to be his mama and learn so much from him.
