We were blessed with the opportunity to share Praying the Steps with Gus yesterday and it went well. The day and the weather couldn't have been more gorgeous. And our company was fabulous - our friend Phyllis, Aunt Gaga aka Cate, and Cierra, an intern from WCPO who tirelessly chronicled our whole journey. We were amazed what she was able to do with the random blubberings we gave her on film to put together wonderful representations of our story.
Supporting him to take some steps up the stairs there were a few times when I really felt him find his own balance and put some power in to his standing and stepping! I believe our boy will get there and will take steps on his own someday.
Thank you so much to all of you who took time out yesterday to add Gus to your prayers! Knowing you were sending so much love and support gave us the strength to make our pilgrimage and I can't wait to someday share the news of him walking!
Here is the TV footage. Cierra came out to our home Thursday and then spent 3+ hours with us on Friday. Thank you, Cierra and WCPO!

I can't seem to find the footage from the day they came to the house so maybe they put this one in its place.
