January 28th, 2015, Day 1

Hi!  lots of wonderful memories from today.  Two young ladies graduated the program today and we now understand why they have new kids start the program each day.  Us newbies look like deer in the headlights, praying that this will all come together and then you attend a graduation and group with other parents and you know that God has sent you to the right place!  Payton is smiling and is already working hard.  After a long day in physical therapy, occupational therapy, family group, relaxation, and teen group- she was excited to go to dinner with a new friend.  Of course, now we can barely keep our heads up as she reads and I try to make sense while I type!  Tomorrow is a new day- Chad is heading back home to be with Samantha, and Payton and I will have all of her therapies and more meetings with doctors.  So as you might imagine, we are off to bed!  More tomorrow- oh, and how could I forget, keep the encouraging words coming!  They made all of us smile!!
