Hello my AN family. I have amazing news to share with you! I take pictures of my self once a week to compare my face from week to week. Well last night after taking the pictures and thinking to myself how much I miss my smile, I practiced a closed smile in the mirror. I couldn't believe what I saw! The left corner of my mouth moved just a tiny bit, but it moved! I called my kids in and they could see it too! So exciting! Great news huh? Had to tell you all!
Love,
Laura Lynn :)

Thank you all so much for all of your sweet and encouraging words. I've noticed a little improvement since I noticed the first movement. I know it will continue to progress as long as I continue my exercises. My next big step is I'm preparing to go back to work. I've been out over 4 months. My energy level is still pretty low but I need the money. I'm hoping my strength will come back so I can handle a 40 hour work week. I'll of course keep you posted on that. I plan on going back beginning of Oct.
Love,
Laura Lynn

WOW! You are lucky that you have been able to stay away from work that long! I had to go back at 3 months and that was teaching 1st grade - pretty hands on and physical! I came home & slept everyday until it was time to get up the next morning!
I know you will do great!
