It’s been an exciting week! We have had additions again, and a few endings as well. It was Quinn’s last week of her first year of school. Her teachers have gone above and beyond figuring her out and helping her be successful. I’ve heard from lots of folks, how her classmates love her and play with her, and again that is due in part to her teachers modeling for her classmates, along with the fact that she has some good friends there. What a great year we have had with school, when we made it there. Thank You to Ms Rachel, Ms Joni, and Ms Nadean (Quinn’s nurse) for everything they have done, and also to her therapists and para's, who have also worked so hard to help us out. The good thing is that we will be back at preschool next year, and the plan is to have Quinn’s same teachers and therapists (I hope), and I’m overjoyed to have that be the same. It’s kind of hard to figure Quinn out sometimes and so having the same people working with her, will just be wonderful, along with the fact that we have it good right now, so I’m thankful we will not be changing anything. Well one big change is that her classroom, teachers and all will be at a different building, because Riley is growing so much, Headstart is moving to a different school with more space, so we are thankful to the Riley school community, for supporting us this last year.
Yes, she has her pants on in this picture, but you get the idea! We have to keep things clean for our blog! :)Our new addition is Quinn’s bath chair / potty-chair. In fact on Wednesday after we had it all adjusted, Chrissy told me that Quinn went potty on her potty chair, over the toilet, four times that day! Wow! Not to get to graphic, but she did both 1 and 2 through out the day, to keep it PG. YEAH! You go Quinn, and thanks so much to Chrissy for getting everything adjusted so it’s just right for Quinn to use. Quinn is even doing a good job standing up for Chrissy to get her pants and briefs off, before she sits down. That is a really big deal, because as she keeps growing, that will be a huge thing for her to do! Quinn being the stinker she is, has also figured out how to get out of things. Chrissy and Quinn were working on head control, and Quinn was getting tired, so she signed that she had to go potty, but she did not go, we are thinking she just wanted to stop doing her head control exercises. You go Quinn! Good job figuring out how to get out of doing your exercises. On that same note as I’m giving out thanks, we love Chrissy, she can still get Quinn to do things before anyone else. So not only to end out the school year with Quinn feeling good, and doing well at school, we are so thankful for Chrissy! Quinn is continuing to be successful because of Chrissy’s love and knowledge! Phew, we have got it good!
Talking about having it good, we had possibly our final “Quinn’s House” meeting this afternoon, before we start digging! It’s been a long process getting ready to dig, but as we have had new folks step up and share their talents with us, we have continued to change a few things here and there to make the house more and more adaptable, so I would rather take it slow and get it done right the first time. I’m getting better and better at being patient, and at the same time, I’m getting excited about sharing our home with so many folks and feeling the love as we build Quinn’s house. It’s going to be a very exciting summer! It's fun seeing Greg, our Home Builder (not architect) getting excited, and having amazing the experience is, God is good.
