Dylan had a good week last week that included a routine appointment, a Dentist appointment, lots of therapy and stander time, smores and movie night, massage, bike ride, deep cleaning his therapy room and 🥳 birthday party as well as overseeing the install of Easter decor (he made the artwork years ago)

Yesterday was really pretty so we got outside and i didn’t get a single picture.

Grateful he is having more good days than bad! Slow and steady! 🐢

We had the best time tonight at Dylan’s open house! 🏠

Friends, therapists, caregivers, nurses, all braved the snow to come celebrate with us!

Many of the people that were at our house tonight have known Dylan since before his diagnosis. And they have stuck with us and continue to support us and we appreciate it so much.

One of my big goals as Dylan‘s mom is to make sure that he knows how much he is loved and supported. I’m so grateful to everyone who came tonight to help me show Dylan just that— he is SO loved.🥰

(He also got a little pre party massage) 💆 🐢🙌🏻

Dylan’s birthday celebrations continued tonight when we headed to the Pistons vs Cavaliers game. This was his “big gift”
And what a game! It was so exciting. Dylan stayed awake the entire time and we got lots of smiles and squeals. It was such an exciting game and I think his new glasses really do help to keep his attention and help him to see better.

I also want to give a shout out to the Pistons and thank them for recognizing that Dylan was in Attendance. They brought him a bag full of goodies, which was so sweet. This team will always hold a special place in my heart because of how well they always treat Dylan while we are in attendance at their games. They never forget their wish kid.

We have a few more celebrations planned over the weekend, so stay tuned….

Oh, and it was my birthday today! I enjoyed every minute of it. It was a beautiful day here in Michigan and the game tonight was so much fun!!!

Many thanks to all kids who joined Dylan today to celebrate him during seminar and snack as well as some of his lifelong friends who made sure to bring cards and celebrate him at school.

His sweet speech language pathologist also got him a gift which was so kind.

 we are so grateful to everyone who tried to make today’s special for Dylan!
