I get asked all the time how Abby became so capable. How she figured out her crutches. How she’s made the progress she has with her mobility, motor planning and skills.

And while I will scream from the rooftops that you need to let go of comparison completely and celebrate your kids exactly where they are, my answer almost every single time is to just give them the chance to figure it out.

Abby has ataxic cerebral palsy, which affects her balance, coordination, and causes low muscle tone. Things that might come easily to someone else can take her extra time, effort, and a whole lot of trial and error.

This was her first ride of the day and the carousel horse she picked was too high off the ground. It would have been SO much faster if I had just lifted her up or made her to choose a lower horse. But she wanted to do it herself and there was no reason she couldn’t have the time and space to try.

That’s something I’ve learned over and over again from her. That the best thing I can do is step back and give her the space to work through something in her own way. Sometimes that means I eventually offer to help and sometimes she’ll take it. Most of the time she politely declines and I love her for that! 😅

And truly hear me when I say that every child is different. Progress looks different for every kid and there is absolutely no timeline they need to follow. Celebrate the little things, the big things, and everything in between.

But truly the most helpful thing I started to do is resist the urge to make everything easier or happen faster and just give her the opportunity to surprise herself 🥹🥲💪🏼✨
