The motor planning and balance in this video is just incredible. We take so much for granted with development.. It is incredible for me to watch this video and see what comes so naturally. We are in the process of retraining Parker to move, sit, roll and do all these things, none of which comes naturally now. It is crazy. It gives me a whole new appreciation for our bodies and creation. To teach Parker to roll, we teach him to bend his top knee, move his hips, rotate his body, keep his arm from being stuck, lift his shoulders and get his hand up and out. But he is learning!!! I also have a whole new appreciation for the importance of repetition and building those neuron pathways in our brain. So I guess take a minute to marvel and appreciate these absolutely incredible bodies, our reflexes
 and all that comes so naturally.
