Today is Lyla's last day of Early Intervention services. She gets to see each of her awesome therapists today for one last session before she moves on to a preschool program in September!
This summer we increased the frequency of Lyla's speech therapy, occupational therapy and special education instruction, from 1 hour each therapy one time per week, to three times per week equaling 2.5 hours of each therapy. This small increase made a huge difference in Lyla's daily interactions and communication. She is now using the word "open" functionally, and is more interested in her siblings than she used to be.
Come September she will be taking a bus, YES, my 3 year old will be on a BUS, to preschool everyday for half day of classroom instruction and therapy. I am sure this will be a big adjustment but in a few weeks time it will become her "normal" and she will thrive even more!
I'm anxious to find out her busing schedule, meet her teachers and therapists, as well as see the new location of Stepping Stones!
First we take a "vacation", is it really vacation when you have 4 kids under 5??? I don't think so. But a fun trip none-the-less is in our near future, and we look forward to that!
