A few photos from our tea party
Happy Birthday Daddy!
Since Ryan was on the road for his birthday, we had a party tonight!
Skyler picked a pin the tail on the donkey and helped bake the cake.
Bionic Fingers? Rock On!
Once I caught myself staring at my friends son, thinking "Why does he look so strange?" and then I realized... *DUH* He has fingers!
Another time, a complete stranger asked "What's wrong with her?" and I stared at her in awe. There is absolutely nothing wrong with my little girl, why would you ask? Oh yeah. Her fingers. They're missing. (Yes, what a rude way to ask! But it's another example of how I forget... which had you told me that whens he was a baby? I'd have thought you were crazy!)
Anywho.... today I was lurking on Huffington Post, and I saw an article titled "Girl, 15, Gets Bionic Fingers."
So I clicked and read! While I am thankful on a daily basis that Skyler doesn't need a prosthetic, and probably never will, I think it is just awesome that these options are becoming available!
Although I do have to leave one warning: Reading through the comments has once again infuriated me... people can be such cruel idiots.

On the road
Skyler and I are spending a few days on the truck with Daddy! She is having the time of her life sleeping in the bunk, and traveling way up high!
