A POEM FOR NALAH


A butterfly lights beside us like a sunbeam.

For a brief moment it's glory and beauty belong to our world.

But then it flies on again, and though we wish it could have stayed, we feel so lucky just to have seen it.

My girlies together



I love how Nalah interacts with her big Sister Karis. Nalah was always so patient and loving with her sister. The two have a special bond. Notice also that Nalah is kicking her legs continually, she loved motion and activity. If she were able to walk, I am sure she would be running around like nobody's business. Nalah thrived on social interaction and stimulation. She is/was very much like her big sister that way. I am so grateful that we were able to get to know Nalah, her personality and to simply spend time with her. Family time is irreplaceable. 


I should mention about the arm splints...they were a temporary thing. Before we knew Nalah had allergies and itchy eyes as a result, she scratched her cornea and caused an abrasion. Nalah wore these splints while her eye was healing. We later used about three different eye drops to keep her eyes comfy. Over the counter stuff and some allergy stuff. Her eyes never gave her trouble after that.
