birdie

Our little birdie has turned four. It's hard to imagine. She had her birthday right before Christmas but I am just now uploading some photos. We love her to pieces!



This is Kaci's birthday present. No, she did not get a pet. Just the cage. "How strange" you might think but this is what she wanted. She loves to put stuff inside and carry it around. The best part: opening and closing the door! It's too cute to watch her. There will be anything in that cage: toy animals, play dishes, books, crayons, doll accessories and even shoes. If there is something missing around the house, we just ask Kaci if it's in her cage. She smiles really big and runs to her cage and pulls it out!





Her face is healing very nicely following her accident on the day Wyatt was born. She still wants Taj to pray for her ouchie every day. If he forgets, after the prayer is finished she will get his attention and point at her scar. We have to laugh at times .. it's been nine weeks!

Kaci is slowing learning some words. She enjoys going to speech class each week. We can't wait until we can hear her say complete sentences! She's such a trooper and tries so hard to talk. I am sure it must be frustrating for her at times when we can't understand what she's wanting. (makes me want to cry because I feel so sorry for her) But she never seems to get upset .. she just keeps trying to explain with motions and her own little form of sign language.

We just love that little girl!

Happy belated birthday, Kari! I'm sure it must be frustrating for her to not be able to verbally communicate but she is always so happy and smiley!
