Next chapter is fast approaching!

So it's July!  And while that is not a big deal to some people, to me it means sadness and happiness all in one.  As we pack of to head to Denver at the end of this month (well Chris at least, the rest of us August 12th), I can't help but shed some tears.  The emotional thought of leaving my family who has been so much help is almost excruciating to me.  I have relied on my mom to take Kamiree at least once a week for a break for both of us.  It has been a blessing to have that break and to be able to just breathe.  All the kids get a "break" from me quite often and it's been nice for all of us!  Again, the reason it is hard to leave.  We have slowly been packing up our house realizing how much junk we have :)  Maybe everybody should move every 5 years so they can cleanse their houses haha!  Anyways, this summer has been a good one for Kamiree for the most part!  Her speech has really come along!  She is trying to say 3 word sentences quite a bit now!  She still has fits, and to be honest we have been pretty lax on the gluten free diet this summer.  It is so hard, but really it's no excuse.  I can't wait to see what 5 days of speech will do for her!  She did get put on SSI disability so I signed her up with a speech therapist that does hippotherapy.  I can't wait for her to have one day a week on a horse still learning but not knowing it necessarily :)  As hard as this is, I know that at the end we will be happy with whatever outcome it might be.  I know she will improve, so that's what matters.  I want her to have a normal life and be able to be independent.  This will take lots of planning on our part to meet that goal.  Thank you for everybody that has supported us thus far.  This is a journey like no other for us!
