you too...

A whole lot of memories.  Here's one:

Isaac was fifteen when this picture was taken.  He is trying to smile, but can't due to rigid muscles--an effect of the drugs.  At close to 6' he would lose his balance and fall to the ground like a toddler; he's using the tree for balance.  He regained his footing over a long period of time.  When he came home in 2005, two years later, he still had balance issues: when leaning over to tie his shoes in a seated position, he would fall to one side.

Yesterday he cooked breakfast--perfectly.  He played a suduko hand held game for the first time in about a year on Friday--I can't do those...He also said, "I Love you too, mom" several times--he has, since he was young told me virtually every day--when he was home--that he does--in the last couple of days, he has added the 'too' every time; saying several times both Friday and Saturday, "I love you too, mom."
