John started 3rd grade yesterday. He seemed happy to go back.
We had a good summer. I'll post some pictures soon of some of our adventures, including a long road trip down to Lake Tahoe.
I had a goal this summer of getting John to ride a bike without training wheels. Unfortunately he had a little accident on the tandem early in the summer (got his foot caught in the wheel). Maybe because of this he didn't have much interest in his bike. I finally got him out a couple of times and let him coast down a little grass hill without the training wheels. He did pretty good, but I could never get him to pedal. He doesn't know how to brake yet anyway, so maybe it's just as well.
Seizure-wise, John has been doing pretty well. He hasn't had a big seizure in awhile, but continues to have the many small head-drop seizures daily.
John has an extra tooth right in the front. His 2 permanent front teeth are coming in very crooked because of this. We have an appt. to have it pulled under sedation, but the waiting list is long so we're trying to figure out what to do.
