Luke can still only use the toddler swings. He will see the other kids playing on the other playground equipment and want to join in, but he can’t. If I put him down, he will scoot in the mulch/dirt to try and play. It’s sad because I know he really wants to play and he doesn’t understand why he can’t. Once he can at least stand on his own, he can do more, but for now we are not going back to the playground:(

Our physical therapist mentioned one day that butt scooting is usually an indication that a person has low muscle tone. So, now I’m wondering if I maybe had it too, but not as bad as Luke. I have never been very athletic or had a lot of endurance. I managed to make it through basic training though:)

I’m just hopeful for Luke’s future. I hope that his hypotonia is something that he can overcome and eventually catch up to where he needs to be. It’s fine with me if he is never athletic, but I know this is something that would be more difficult for a boy to handle. He is already very smart, so I think he will be more studious than athletic anyway. Only time will tell us for sure.
