I have Been Lazy

I haven't posted in about two weeks. I have a meeting scheduled for Wednesday with Melyssa's team to re-evaluate whether she will be moved to a new class and a new school. Her new class is called an adjustment class and it would switch the focus from self-help skills to academic skills. It gives me much hope for Melyssa's future. The topic of Melyssa's long term future was recently brought up, this is always touchy for me. I want to think the best outcome will come about. That Melyssa will be able to function and thrive on her own as an adult, but the reality is that we just don't know. Melyssa just turned seven last week. Birthdays are a great time to reflect on how much has happened for her this past year. She is more confidant than ever and she is talking recognizably most of the time, in fact she is becoming quite a chatter box! She has been going to the bathroom on the toilet more and more. I have great hopes for my kiddo and she is meeting and exceeding challenges every day!
