Tonight's picture was taken in September of 2002. Mattie's pediatrician encouraged me to have Mattie spend time each day on his tummy. Mainly because Mattie wasn't crawling and had no desire to crawl. She felt he needed to strengthen his tummy muscles. But here's the thing I learned about Mattie. I couldn't make him do anything he wasn't ready or comfortable doing! Mattie had no desire to crawl, but was very focused on walking and weight bearing on his two feet. Mattie bypassed crawling altogether. This was the story of Mattie's life..... when Mattie was ready, that was when things were going to happen. His own time schedule ruled and I learned as a mom to not get wrapped up with standard pediatric milestone dates and times.

It's quite a weather weekend of more rain and cooler temperatures. Thankfully we both bought real rain coats yesterday, as we were out and about in the rain today with Sunny in tow.
We are slowly working on getting our candy storage unit up to speed to manage sorters and tons of candy. I don't think storage spaces were designed for volunteers, but we are always avant garde. We bought special battery powered lights to brighten up the space (since the units have NO electrical outlets) and by the time volunteers transcend arrive in November, there will be stations for unsorted, sorted, and binned candy. It is a major operation in a 10x30 space.
