Preschool

A few people have asked what our plans are for preschool for Lily. She will be starting in two weeks (I CAN'T WAIT!!!), and will be going Mon-Thurs mornings. She will have a para (one-on-one aide) and also get all her school-based therapies there (physical, occupational, and speech therapy). It's going to be great! I have been looking forward to it ALL summer.

I have felt like this summer was hard, not having any therapies or school environment. I really don't think it's best for Lily to go all summer with nothing. So, next summer will probably be different :). I don't know exactly what I'll be able to work out, since summer school has been completely cut from the budget, but there's got to be SOMETHING, maybe some camps?? We'll see. Right now I'm hoping and praying that she makes a lot of gains this school year.

Definitely look into alternative therapies! Therapeutic horseback riding. Also, aquatic type therapies are great! Hmmm...what else? Our local Y-camp works with many levels of special needs and while Lily is a bit young now that is, also, an option as she gets older!

Struggling to brain storm anymore than that but if I think of something I'll throw it your way!

So, how's it been going? How is she doing and adjusting?
