Stacey, Our Speech Pathologist always comes to the house on Monday afternoon to work with both of the girls. She usually arrives at 1:45pm. 
Usually, I am still at work at this time and Taylor has usually been home for about 10 minutes before she gets to the house. Jorden happened to be home sick today, so Jase was there watching him. Stacey came over to work with Tay… and the following exchange took place…ENJOY!

This morning as I sent Taylor to the school bus to go to school I started thinking about how grateful I am that all three of my kiddos have very kind and accomodating bus drivers this year. They will always wait a few extra minutes for them if they are running late, help them on the bus, and show genuine interest in them. In the past, this has not been the case. Let me just tell you, that having an impatient Bus Driver who could care less…could really make a single Mom’s life much more difficult than it has to be… This got me thinking….. How often do we overlook the importance of a Bus Driver?

Today started at 8am…when I jumped out of my bed to realize that I overslept. I ran out of bed to meet The Physical Therapist at the door. She came over to work with the girls. She works with them by stretching their legs and having them do various exercises to strengthem their muscles. Erin was up first, and did awesome! Erin is always so compliant and usually follows all directions when given by others. Then it was Taylor’s turn. I should just end it there with a period and you should get some type of idea how Taylor did.

The header says it all! Have you ever had one of those days?
Overall, the kiddos are pretty healthy, no seizures for awhile, and so far colds have stayed away from them…so I choose not to call it a bad day. It is just ONE of THOSE days. Does this make sense?

The alarm went off at 5 am this morning…I rolled out of bed and went and laid in bed with Taylor to slowly nudge her to become consious (if you read our blog on a regular basis you will know that she is not the easiest to awake in the morning). After about 10 minutes…she turned to me and said “Mom, I’m moving.” This was news to me! I said, “where?” She quickly responded, “Tennessee”. “Tennessee?, and what are you going to do there?” She said, “To see my Dad, he needs to come here, and doesn’t so I will go there soon..” She continues to tell me that she is mad at me for getting upset with her for getting upset with me the night before. I don’t know where all this came from…but it was refreshing to see her think and advocate for herself. AND no worries, even though she may think it…she isn’t going anywhere. She knew I knew this…that’s why…as she was leaving to get on the bus, she stuck her head back in the house and said “I REALLY am moving!”
