Even though we were only able to stay for part of it, the Star Wars concert was great. Anytime you have a live Orchestra for anything it is always extra exciting. Such talent. There were these giant flame throwers on stage (I don't know if the people in the front rows have any eyebrows left), we were in the 18th row and could feel the heat.
Connor was feeling a little under the weather last night, and this morning. He had a bit of a headache which could be due to the lumbar puncture. His headache was making him nauseous, which in turn was making the headache worse when he got sick.. it was a bit of a vicious cycle. He was finally able to keep his nausea medicine down, and felt much better for the rest of the day.
Connor was able to join his class this afternoon. The kids seemed so excited to see him. We played capture the flag (boy, mom was exhausted from pushing him around in his chair for that lol!!), and he was able to do a coloring activity in class. It really cemented for me how important it's going to be for him to be in school with his friends as much as possible. He was so energized after class.
On the way out of School he said, "Mom isn't it so nice that I have such nice friends, and a nice teacher?"
They made him some beautiful cards and gave him some knit hats with the School logo on them (So cool !!!) for his collection.
Connor was very determined to walk on his own today. He's was able to take about 10-15 steps on his own before needing to hold onto anything. I am very proud of him. We met friends for dinner tonight and Connor chose not to use his wheel chair. He wanted to walk instead.
The best part of today: Seeing Connor so excited to see his friends, and his friends so excited to see him
Tomorrow: We get the results of the MRI and Spinal late tomorrow afternoon
What made me grumble today: Getting the property tax bill and seeing it go up by 13% (OUCH)

It was great to see you yesterday, Connor! It's always a special day to have you in class! I'm so impressed to hear how hard you are working to walk. I know it's not always easy, but you have certainly been working hard, and it's making a difference! Good for you! See you soon.
