January 15th, 2008

Matt continues to work really hard when he's at Sharpe. He didn't have therapy yesterday due to a shortage of therapists but he'll be back friday and I get to go with so I'm really excited to see him on the bicycle! I keep telling him ill be there so he has to show me how fast he can go.
Tuesday Matt finally got his glases! I think he looks very handsome in them. I tell him he looks like a college professor. You can tell how much more Matt focuses with them on. Must be so much easier for him to see things. Yesterday they had Matt in his standing frame with his glasses on and he held his head up all by himself. He was standing for 45 minutes! He continues to hold his head and neck up more and more. Like Spencer said we need to accomplish one thing at a time, and it looks like Matt might be there with the accomplishment of holding his head up.
Something that Matt does with me that just makes My heart leap out of My chest is he'll grab My hand or arm If I look like I'm getting up to leave. He'll just look at me and grab my arm as if he was telling me don't go. Another thing he'll do is If I'm laying in bed with him ill just rest My arm by his side and he'll move his hand to mine so we can hold hands. Last night I leaned over and kissed him on his cheek and said I love you. He reached his arm up and placed his hand on My face. I swear he can read my mind. He knows everytime I need his touch. Its like he's reassuring me that everything will be ok. He knows me all too well.
