Weekend Stuff

Just a quick post today on how Dawson is doing....

Our house has been invaded by some nasty little bug.. Fevers, coughs, snotty noses etc etc.. Dawson kicked it all of and has spread it to Madison and Allison... So far so good for me. not even a sniffle ( I hope I can keep it that way)

Dawson still remains seizure free and is learning in leaps and bounds. I know this seems to be the focal point of my posts now a days ( How well Dawson is doing) but what do you expect?? What else do i have to blog about?? No seizures, no behavior problems like before... Everything now a days is centered around how quickly he is catching up developmentally. He still has ways to go mind you BUT... progress progress progress!!!!!!!

This week seems to be the week of " I wants" for Dawson.. I want my mommy, I want my juice, I want my juice box, I want my sissy.... Oh as Im typing this it seems so unbelievable!! I reflect back on where we were just a few short months ago, a seizure ridden kid, laying in a hospital bed.... Them telling us they are wanting to remove a section of his brain.... and now??

No surgery needed, seizures gone by the hand of God and this kid is doing way more than I ever thought he would.. Dawson slayed the seizure monster and now holds his foot on the seizure monsters throat.. Stomp hard my son, stomp Really hard!!!

A note to Kinsleys mom.. thank you for your comment and we would love to get up with you!! You didnt leave us any contact information so please email us at wade92503@yahoo.com and leave us a way to contact you.

Thank you again for all your prayers! our love to all

Disney World and stuff about Dawson

We are safely back from Disney World.. Wow what a trip. We had SO MUCH fun. We were of course worried how Dawson would do traveling that far, spending all day in the park, being around the different characters, all the different people... He did just Fantastic!! He loved every minute of it. He rode the rides, even did a roller coaster once.. It was just a great great trip as you can tell by the pictures. Enjoy

I did want to do an update on Dawson while im on here. Today is day 146 seizure free!!! Praise God!! We have witnessed not only a seizure ridden child become seizure free.. But a TRUE transformation. This kids brain is like a sponge right now. He is soaking up everything.. I cant even describe how his vocabulary has grown 100 fold over the past couple of months. He is talking in short sentences now and can even carry on a conversation. questions and answer type stuff. He is learning at such a rapid rate that its hard to keep up with. He is excelling in school, singing songs, naming all the shapes and putting them in their perspective places, counting, knows and says his first and last name, points to and says all the animals... its just incredible!!!!!!!

He is asking for specific foods to eat.. plays Wii with Madison.. I could just go on and on. There is no possible way to do it justice on a blog.. Its just something you would have to see with your own eyes.. God has truly truly worked a miracle in this child.

Just this morning, Madison had on her school shirt that has a chipmunk on it. Dawson walks up to her and says " CHIPMUNK" I didnt even know he knew that word. Its stuff like that that we are so excited about.. His learning and progression are happening at such a rapid rate right now its almost going to fast to enjoy it!! What a miracle right??!!!

We are so so proud of all he is doing...

Sorry for being away for so long.. I have lots of blog catching up to do in the next coming days..

Hope you enjoyed a little sample of our trip

Our love to all of you..
