Redefining MommyhoodJourney of a mom whose son is overcoming hypotonia

We had a breakthrough yesterday during our in-home physical therapy. Luke has not been cooperating very well for the therapist, but she was playing with some of his blocks and he decided he wanted to play. He likes to take his toy tools and break apart his Mega Blocks. The PT had some of the blocks in her hand while Luke was standing. He would swing the toy tool (probably not the safest thing to do!) and break the blocks apart. She kept backing up and Luke eventually took 4 steps total!! He even fell forward, put his hands on the floor, then stood back up all by himself!! The therapist was so happy, but she didn’t dare cheer too loudly because she didn’t want to scare him and have him drop to the floor. Luke took a couple tiny steps 2 weeks ago at his other therapy, but these were true steps!!! Yay!!! I’m going to keep practicing with him using his blocks. I know once he feels confident with that, he will decide to take steps while doing other things:)
