Todd smiled. He smiled and he laughed. We weren't sure we would ever see that again. He did it 2 1/2 weeks after the initial event, but hadn't done it after his surgery 2 1/2 weeks ago. We were so worried that we had a major set back.
He still looked pretty groggy and tired all day. Then, all of a sudden, (I think I burped) Brian called me a piggy in front of him and he lost it. He cracked up. Big, giant, grin & then come the shoulders.... bouncing up and down. He was not only smiling, but LAUGHING! After that it was all bright eyes, looking around, re-exploring. My child is back!
I was getting so tired of the sad tears and the heartbreak after heartbreak. I needed this. We needed this. All of us. We needed to know there was a light at the end of the tunnel. Such a wonderful ending to my weekend and beginning to my week.
