Adam

We had our first visit with Adam's team at the Frances Allen School last Friday. They have completed his evaluations and developed a plan for him that we are really pleased with. We could tell from our visit that they spent a lot of time evaluating and observing him and that they got a really good picture of his needs. He will start this week going to occupational and speech therapy, both three times a week for 45 minutes each time. He'll also have 1 hour a week with the developmental specialist, and a set of goals that the teachers will be working on in the classroom. They also suggested that we move Adam & Evan into separate classrooms because Evan is talking for Adam. (Actually, I think Evan is talking for everyone. Ms. Lea told us that she had to remind Evan three times that day that he was not the teacher!). They think that this will help Adam become more independent, and that being in a room with kids just a little older will provide some better role-modeling for him. They will also start working on potty training! They were so encouraging and all feel that Adam is going to make great progress. What an relief and answered prayer!

Please continue to pray that Adam will respond to the therapy and continue to learn and grow. We know that God has great plans for our little man and can't wait to see what He has in store!
