I can't believe it has been almost a year and half since I have posted. Time sure gets away. So much has happened in that time. Peyton has taken up crocheting and loves to make things for other people and donate items to raise money for others. She has 2 foot surgeries, 2 stomach surgeries, and most recently hip surgery. She was also recently diagnosed with severe obstructive sleep apnea. She has had many downs in this time but also things that have made her smile more than ever.
In this world there is not many things she looks forward too but this past fall she was able to hunt in TX where we have met amazing people through . She loves to hunt, and with the list she has of hunts I better win the lottery. I can't wait to get her back out fishing again this summer too and hopefully change her luck (hasn't caught anything in 3 years).
We were also able to obtain a handicapped van that allows me to take her out in her wheelchair to help make her more comfortable and independent.
There are many times where giving up feels easy but she keeps going. I am so proud of each step she takes even when those steps go backwards.
