I just wanted to share a little update on Dan's school. He is doing so well! I'm so glad we decided to place him in this speech program. It has done so much for his confidence and his speech, not to mention his social skills too.
His speech has improved so much over the last couple months. He tries to say everything and their are so many things that he could never say that he says all the time now like orange and and really any word with an 'r'. He absolutely loves practicing his words. Everyday he comes home and shares his words with me and Liam. He also loves doing speech with Liam. He'll get his flashcards and sit with Liam and listen to him practice. Its super cute! Right now he's on track to be able to start kindergarten this fall but he'll still get pulled out for speech. He is so confident now though. It used to be that he wouldn't even try to say new words but now he will and doesn't even tell me its too hard very often anymore. We're so proud of him :)
He also loves his teacher. We have officially entered the age of his teacher being more awesome than mommy and daddy. He is always saying that he can't wait to show his teacher things. He got a haircut and told us that he hoped his teacher liked it. He came home with a birthday party invitation and told me that he could go because his teacher said he could. Its super sweet and its also so sweet to hear him talk about his friends. Every night he prays for his friends which is so sweet.
I know he won't always love school and he definitely won't always be so excited to do his homework but for now its awesome!
