Preparing for the Big League

Day 3 of VBS was a success... as was Day 2 and Day 1. I had his little friend report back to me to find out how he was doing. It helped knowing I had some "inside eyes". He seems to be enjoying it.

We had to cancel Dr. C. yesterday, because of VBS, so he'll be going to her tomorrow and Friday this week. It worked out well, because Jared's future kindergarten teacher and one of the "APD Intervention Program" facilitators at his school met with Dr. C. during his regular appointment time. I don't really know the two ladies. My mom does and she said that they had a wonderful time and that they learned the ins and outs of Jared's brain and believe they can help him in the fall. It was good news, considering I spent part of the afternoon yesterday looking into the Winston school, a school in our city for children with learning disabilities and trying to figure out what miracles would need to take place for him to attend that school.

It sounds like Jared's school is really diving into APD research. What a blessing! I still have tons of work to do this summer, however, if I'm going to get him ready to enter "the big league". Each day it's either one step forward or two steps back. I was telling a friend today that sometimes it seems like he has mini-strokes. How can you know something so well two days in a row and then it vanish on the third day and there is no sign of remembering? You'd think it would come back by the fourth day, but it doesn't. Weird.

Here he is working on one of his easier figureground letters sheets:

Sovereign Lord, you made the earth and the sky by your great power and might; nothing is too difficult for you. Jeremiah 32:17 (GNT)
