Journey continues

Okay so it has been 1 year and 7.5 months since my daughter fell from that window in Hawaii. As most of you know she is doing amazing. She is in therapies at school and out. She is very slow on her right side and is in special education classes at school. She is very smart but can not express it or write very well so she is being isolated from children of her age. I am having a very hard time with this fact because to me she seems "normal" but I also know if we mixed her in a class with all "normal" children she will fall behind. She is so happy all the time and makes us all smile. God works thru her. You can tell by the way she touches peoples lives how she is always making them smile, laughing. It is amazing on how happy she is. We recently signed her up for gymnastics and she does great. She even uses her rightie and runs like a regular child. Best choice on our end! I will take video and post one of her.
Now as for me...I relive this day over and over and over. I can tell you when we woke up, what we had for breakfast, what was said...every little detail one would normally not remember or care to remember. I am very far from over what had happened. Sometimes I feel so guilty for dwelling on it since she is doing great. I wonder will she over have that limp, will she always walk and run with her right arm up beside her head? Will she have a successful life and life with a man as she gets older? I wonder and I worry. Someone once told me as long as she keeps that beautiful smile she will touch everyone's heart and she will do fine. Have you ever felt the power of prayer before? Until this I hadn't. It is so strong and to have been blessed with her, to be trusted with her is so unbelievable. I treasure her so much.
