family time.
I have been looking forward to having a chance to hang out with Saylor and her family for quite a while. Our schedules finally matched up just before I left Utah and I'm so glad.
The relationship between Saylor and her dad, Nate, is fun, encouraging, and silly. They love to laugh together and he loves to push her to try just a little harder. Saylor has had a few setbacks with being able to walk since her last set of casts. She decided to try and walk while I was there with out any help and her dad encouraged her through every step on the back porch until she made it to him on the hammock.
Saylor really doesn't let anything stop her. She jumped like a monkey on the trampoline and then raced along the ramp (given to her as a gift from a cement company) like she was in the Indy 500, and then climbed the stairs faster than I can walk them. She is brave in the face of things most adults would definitely be woosie over and has a bit of mischief in her eyes.
It's been such a gift to get to be with Saylor and Audrey. I've seen some of the sacrifices, patience, and love that goes into their sweet relationship. Now, to see how all of that translates over with Saylor's dad and her brother (Stockton) and sister (Storie) was such a gift.
Saylor has been through a lot...and none of it would have been possible without her sweet family.
family. LOVE.
