CDC Preschool

Well Kendal is officially in the Special Education Program in the Public School System. She is only three and it is hard to drop her off and leave her with people that I don't know as well as I would like, but I know she is in good hands and the program will really benefit her. It has been a big adjustment for her and we hope she grows to love it. Dropping her off and picking her up has been an issue because she is shuttled around several times a day now. She will be receiving Speech Therapy through the school system and she will also start with a private therapist later this month. Since she fell off of TEIS in March, she is still doing good with making sounds but has regressed on her usage of signs.

It still amazes me how the "normal" kids react to her. They seem to instinctively know that she is different and can't communicate the conventional way. Every morning her friends run to give her hugs and kisses and tell the teachers how sweet she is. Kendal just laughs and squeals, and it's the most beautiful sound I have ever heard.
