Rollin’… and other videos (June 10)
We did a second test drive yesterday in the “Special Lucas Car.” He didn’t exactly tear up the streets but it was exciting once again to see him exploring the functions of the power wheelchair, albeit extremely cautiously. He’s a cautious guy, after all, and we remain proud (not to mention surprised) that he’s been so willing to jump into it on his first couple practice drives. The next step is to find a big open space where he won’t have to dodge moving cars…
Here’s some more recent videos of Lucas being Lucas. First, his patented “beard rub”:
Lucas singing the ABCs all by himself:
Meanwhile, during our drive up to Burke’s parents place on Whidbey a few weeks back Lucas developed a strong affinity for Elvis. “Hound Dog” is his favorite:
Also on Whidbey, Lucas enjoyed some guitar music at the Greenbank Farm. With help from Daddy he shows up another patented move, the “Camel dance”…

Lucas! I can’t believe what a big kid you are — moving your own chair around on your own, singing the ABCs all by yourself, I really miss you! Thanks for sharing these sweet videos, lots of love from tio sha… xoxo
