Today is my youngest's birthday. Double celebration! Watching the Empire Strikes Back as a family to celebrate.

Yes, he was born with Cerebral Palsy (spastic quadriplegia). He'll likely never be able to sit, stand or walk unassisted (barring major medical advances.) Special ed resources are a big part of why we'll be returning to the US next year. While we have access to great options for his physical needs here in Mexico, we're finding that as he gets older, we're just unable to adequately meet his cognitive, emotional and behavioral needs here.

Especially with that smile. That is awesome.

My wife wants to be back near family after living primarily abroad for 10 years, so we're probably going to end up in Columbus, OH. There's a very good CP clinic there.

Funny how as you get older your hair migrates from the top of your head to the bottom.

One of the long-term side effects of gravity.
