She Rolls Again

Clare continues to impress us! This afternoon she rolled from her back to her stomach. We thought it would be a couple more weeks before she was able to do this. She has been rolling onto her side and working on getting all the way over, but that last flip is very hard. Her therapist warned us that she may have a lot of trouble getting that last step because of her low muscle tone. But Clare proved us all wrong! Good girl! I think she was as surprised as the rest of us that she did it. She had a stunned look on her face like, "What did I just do?" Now that she knows she can roll, she has been trying all afternoon to do it again. I am constantly amazed how Clare does not give up. She doesn't know she's challenged and not supposed to be able to roll so soon! And that's just wonderful!

I love that Clare now wants to do it again and again. She IS a determined little girl (and so dang cute to look at, too). If this is a sign of things to come, then I think we can take some confidence in Clare's ability to hold her head high and keep on accomplishing new and exciting things!
