She Grew Another Inch

Blondie is responding well to her growth hormone shots. Today we went to the doctor, and she has grown another inch in the last three months. She is finally taller than Bubbles who is younger than her by two years. She is in the 6th percentile for her age. It's such an improvement from when she used to be way below the charts. They did a bone age test last time, and that showed her expected adult height to be 5'2". That is really exciting.

Behavior wise, who knows. The child is very strong willed and traumatized on top of that so it's just going to take a long time. I keep telling myself that but it's a daily challenge to try to get through to her. We did have a good time today though. She almost always does well when she's with me.
