After speech, my husband and SJ went to McDonald's for dinner. After they finished that, they made two stops to get things for Christmas. He was smart to get him fed first. SJ is notoriously difficult to take shopping if he is hungry. When they returned, I had finished my 11 dozen cookies. SJ told me that he had a different therapist and where they went to shop. He was in a good mood. I was glad that he wasn't nearly as difficult for my husband as he was for me the week before. Only one more session before Christmas break.

after school speech part 12
This week my very kind husband took SJ to speech. I had tons of cookies to bake for a cookie swap, so I appreciated the break. SJ's normal speech therapist was not there, so he had a substitute. He had this substitute therapist before and he was comfortable with her. The nice thing about SJ having a therapist that he hasn't had in a while is that they can see the vast improvements that he makes. She told my husband that she could hardly get a word in edgewise, since he was so talkative. (I love hearing that my PDD child is talkative. Only 6 years ago, he was constantly silent.) She finished up his testing and then she worked on more Why questions with him. She said he had a good session.

What a difference a week makes! Do you have any input on what may have made SJ more talkative over the years? Maturity? Therapy? Luck?
ReplyDeleteYou never know what kind of day you are going to have with him! LOL! I think SJ's progress is definitely a combination of his maturity and YEARS of therapy. I don't know where we would be today had it not been for the many wonderful TSS's, speech and occupational therapists. We are blessed!
