Hello Everyone!
I am in a good mood today. 
I just confirmed my attendance at this nice, formal luncheon that is held by the Dayle Mcintosh Center www.daylemc.org this Friday….in recognition of me and my efforts with this website. Exciting stuff! I am being nominated for the “Apple of Our Eye” Education award. It would be so cool to win! I’ll let you all know how it goes. I don’t feel the need to be rewarded for hosting this blog since it is something I love to do! I hope to keep this blog up for years to come, and maybe pass it off one day to a worthy TCPer! I hope that those of you who read about me and my life with CP, walk away with something. Maybe a new perspective on life, a new way to improve your body, mind, spirt ect. because even by just writing about my experiences, I feel so much more at peace with who I am. I feel like I am contributing something to the outside world..even if it’s something as small as how a hike I went on. Because maybe another kid my age can relate to me, or a young couple who struggle with their child who has CP can read about me and have a sense of hope, that everything will be ok. I love to write, and to be able to take what I love to do, and write about something that I live with everyday, is truly an eye-opening experience. I have learned so much about who I am as a person, just by being honest myself…these past few months with the castings and all that, I have really tested my limits, and I know now that I can get through anything if I got through that rough patch. It’s a great feeling of satisfaction, and I hope that you all will feel that sense of self awareness sometime in your life.
Well I’m off to a nice dinner made by the mamcita. I hope you are all doing well in your lively endevours, feel free to email me about anything that is on your mind, anything you are going through…I’ll always be around!
Take care & Thanks for listening, Katy
