We went to the doctor today so Caitlyn could get her flu shot. As we were walking out, there was a lady that was walking out too. She said hi to Caitlyn. The dialogue went something like this:
Lady: Hi! I like your shoes!
Caitlyn: [bent over and pointed at her shoes]
Lady: Do they light up?
Caitlyn: (as clear as day with a big smile) Yeah!
The lady continued to hurry on her way, not knowing what joy she just gave me. I go to sleep tonight knowing that my little girl understands more than we have ever given her credit for! I love my little girl! Here's to many more stories like this one. Here's to finding the little girl full of life trapped in a Rett body.

Yeah Caitlyn!! We all know you are one smart little girl but I know how excited your mommy must be to hear you say "yeah." I would love your light up shoes too!
I just read this to my dad and we both got choked up. I'm so thrilled for you all!
Rebecca, wow, i haven't looked at this in so long, and this was the first thing I read! It brought tears to my eyes!
