Parker and Patrick are now attending the same
school and are in the same classroom. Parker is
very happy to get on the school bus every
morning. Parker has remained healthy for the
past few months. He has been able to participate
with the family on our weekend activities.
Parker loves amusement parks and is so excited
when we go to Disneyland or Legoland. Parker has
started using a reverse walker at home, school
and in the community. He is doing very well and
seems motivated to walk using the walker. We
predict that in no time Parker will be walking
independently. Its wonderful to see so much
progress with Parker in such a short period of
time.
February 2008
Parker joined our family in late December. He moved from a local sub-acute nursing facility, which had been his home for his entire eleven year, to our family. While the first month or so Parker battled with some serious medical issues, he is very stable now. Parker is able to attend public school and go with the family on all of our community activities. While Parker doesn't talk he certainly expresses himself though facial expressions, vocalizations and gestures. Parker, like his twin brother Patrick, is a very loving and social boy wh is just now able to explore the world around him. We are so excited to be Parker's "forever family" and hope to complete the boys' adoptions before the end of the year.
