Summer is here, Sara is out of school!

I'm sorry again that it has been so long! I thought that I would do this post about Miss Sara. She is out of school for the summer and she will be in Kindergarten this coming fall. I can't believe it! I have added pictures of her and what the teachers do when they come over.

I know that I say she is in school but not everyone will know what that means. They come in and wash their hand. To start with her they put lotion on her little body starting at the feet working their way up. Each body part gets rubbed 5 times. We hold our hand up to her counting each time.

Then we move to putting on clothes and socks. After we brush her teeth and hair. At this point she is ready for the day. They work on a number of things with her. Things like independence, anticipation, self-awareness, making sounds, turn taking, self-care, feeding and acceptance of new textures in her mouth.

I'm sure that there are things that I'm forgetting. She has made great strides this year. As I said there are pictures on here that shows all of it. When I said that she is going to be in kindergarten that doesn't mean that she is going in to school. Her immune system still isn't good and we are still taking measures to insure the best things are done to help her stay healthy and happy.

I was going to make this post all about Sara. However, Tyler is out of school but we are going to be working on math this summer. We are also adding in music for him. I love playing and singing. So he is going to learn the clarinet and lap harp. I will also be giving him lessons in singing.

If he is good, I will let him take lessons from someone else to learn the guitar this fall. I'm sure that we are going to have a blast. Say a prayer for me!!! Well have a safe and happy summer!

Blayne is out for the summer too! We need to find activities to do because he is going to get really bored. I was thinking about doing hippo therpay with him and the feeding therapy. I love the new blog design! Email me so we can catch up. I miss you!
