the beginning



the Child must know that he or she is a miracle,
that since the beginning of the world there hasn't been, and until the
end of the world there will not be, another child like him or her.

-Pablo Casals


welcome to WonderWowee! this blog has been created for parents of children with limb differences. i hope it will be a place of truth and encouragement.


my husband and i have been blessed with two children. our son was born in 2003 and he's our big, creative red-head. our daughter was born in 2005 also big (9lb.2oz.) and beautiful with a partial limb LBE (left below elbow). i want to use this bit of matrix to tell about our discoveries, joys and pains as we navigate life with a limb difference. i'm sure you have similar stories and all of these words can speak to others, especially families who may have just found out their baby has a limb difference. this new information can leave parents disoriented. i specifically hope that this blog and it's stories and links (as we add more and more) will give families joy and insight.
