Steps forward

Today Bob took a few steps forward! Even better, he moved his right foot all on his own to meet his left foot! I saw it on video. It was incredible. He moved his left foot forward first, then his right foot slid forward to join his left foot. Bob did this at least three times. We are all very proud of him. He truly is a strong man.

Bob saw his East coast grandchildren on face time. My son got more laughs and my daughter, who is five, got Bob to touch the screen at his end to show affection. She is having a harder time than my son accepting vovô's new condition. Although it only hit her after she got off the call with him, she was all smiles while they were talking.

Tia Rita came back from São Paulo and is spending the night so that my mom can start packing my parent's bag's back at my grandmother's house. We are feeling optimistic and are looking forward to the end of next week.

Thanks for reading and keep the positive thoughts and prayers coming. (They are working!!)
