Wordless Wednesday: Swing

Visual description: A blue accessibility placard with the word "SWING" under the usual symbol; attached to a horizontal bar, to which a heavy-duty playground chain is attached; against a background of trees and blue sky.

For Wordless Wednesday. Taken at the Shane's Inspiration playground in Griffith Park, in Los Angeles, on Sunday.

Wordless Wednesday: Proof of Growth

Inspired by a similar image at Jenelle's Journey:

Image description: a row of six AFOs (ankle-foot orthotics) in ascending order of size (L-R), with various shapes, and various colors of foam inserts and straps).

Further explanation: These are six of my son's AFOs, worn in sequence since 2000. There should be a smallest, seventh pair--his first, fitted in 1998--but those are at the Smithsonian. (I'm not kidding, they really are.) And there will soon be an eighth, biggest pair--he'll be enduring a mold-making session this Thursday.

My kid's legs, in casts, taken last week in the park. His sister wrote his name on them.

Two weeks down, two more weeks till the pins come out...

Spotted yesterday in Redondo Beach, CA:

Wordless Wednesday: A Smiling Heart

[description of image: a photo of my son taken five years ago, wearing a tie-dye'd shirt with a big red heart on the chest; he's sitting in a Convaid stroller; there's a folded shirt behind his head, and there's sand and a sidewalk in the background]
