I Can Ride My Bike Again!!!

Last night the neurology nurse called to tell me all of Ava's EEG results came back NORMAL!! She said, "she can resume any and all activities she wishes!" Those were the best words. This means Ava can ride a bike, climb, go to the park, go back to gymnastics, go in bouncy houses, swing, and be a normal kid again! This is something we have been missing since the beginning of December. Since the call didn't come until a little after 6:00 last night we couldn't do any activities to celebrate. I told my mom I was going to take Ava outside and make her ride her bike while I shined a flashlight in her path just because she could do it again! Tonight it was nice so we celebrated "normal life" with a bike ride. Many of the outside toys are up in the garage and this was the only bike down. Ava didn't complain though, she hopped right on and peddled away with a giant grin on her face. We should be able to get back to swimming lessons, gymnastics and will try a dance class in May at the Y. We will celebrate more on Saturday with a trip to Monkey Joe's.
