Happy World by Lillian Darnell

July 21 2016:

Lillian got inspired by a drawing she created yesterday …. This is an incredible story and looks like it will be the story of how Mr. Happy Tree came to be.

Lillian drew a tree last summer that we named Mr. Happy Tree and I told her he is going to be a great book character … The 2nd picture is Mr Happy Tree from last summer. Hope you enjoy …

“One day, a bird picked up a seed to eat. A few minutes later, the bird decided that it wasn’t the right seed. The bird threw it back down. That was the beginning of the Happy World.

As the years past, the tree grew until it had several branches and a strong trunk. The strong tree became known as the Happy Tree. The Happy Tree decided to produce a seed. The seed grew with happiness and love. One day, the seed blossomed into a young beautiful tree that didn’t grow much after that point.” Go here to read the rest … https://lilliandarnell.com/2016/07/20/a-happy-world/

Lillian’s Accomplishments and Goosebumps

Lillian & Camilla May 2016 Date Day #6

July 20 2016:

We shared with Lillian’s physical therapist on Wednesday, the 20th, the pictures of her using the stairs and also about one other achievement she met while on this trip. Jillian, her therapist, got goose bumps! This is good stuff!

YES!! There’s another one that was accomplished. It’s a personal and private achievement … Just know, she did it! Took 14 and a half years, yet she did it!!! Wahooooo!! We are happy to share with any other C18 parents (or other special needs parents) … Just comment here or message me. YAY, WAHOO, and Let’s celebrate!! xoxo

I double checked with Lillian’s PT for the accurate names of what she’s been working on with Lillian for the past year … Straight from her: We have been working on integrating Fear Paralysis Reflex, Moro Reflex, Galant Reflex and Tonic Labyrinthine Reflex and Body Mapping. … xoxo

Reaching for the Stars

Lillian Going Down Stairs July 2016 San Antonio

She’s reaching for the stars … And she will have what she reaches for …. Incredible, wonderful, inspiring blog post that Lillian wrote yesterday … xoxo

“Hey, everyone! This blog post will include 2 stories (1 non fiction and 1 fiction), inspiration, and a fiction interview. Let’s start with the non fiction story.

One day, my body decided I was ready to try the ladder at my therapy place. Slowly but surely, my body had decided to try the stairs. Now I can easily walk up them alone without being scared. Ever since, I’ve been proud to have touched the stars. (If anyone wonders what’s next, it’s escalators).

Let’s move on to the fantasy version of a story. I hope you enjoyed the 1st story!

Once, a young girl named Rainbow had wanted to be able to go down stairs for a long time but her body wasn’t ready to do it. Many years past before her body started to sense that she wanted to achieve the goal. When she was probably 14, her body was able to take the hint fully. So she took her time up until Wednesday when she achieved the goal. She was very excited. She was reaching toward the stars.

Let’s move on to the interview. This is where you will find more details about the first story. Speaking of story, I hope you enjoyed the 2nd story. (If you are wondering, this blog post is inspiration based). …………. The moral is to reach for the stars.”

Moving to Hawaii

“I’m moving to Hawaii … You are the meanest Mom ever … There’s no more Team TLC, just TC!” –Lillian Darnell

I had to put the mean ole Mama foot down earlier. Hard not to laugh when she’s saying this!!! All is good y’all! After about 15 minutes I asked if she needed to sit in my lap. She said yes and I suggested some alternatives to “fix the issue”!!
