Busy Busy Busy

Happy St. Patricks Day!  I grew up thinking that I was Irish only to find out a few years ago that we are not Irish.......  We lived in a town full of Irish patrons so my mom and dad decided to say "We are Irish"  Silly parents I have!  But we still celebrate like we are!

Jonathon has had a very busy week so far.  Monday evening we went out to our St. Clair County Down Syndrome Support Group Meeting.  A Few families showed up.  We ate pizza, fruit, and cookies along with pop and got to sit down and visit with some other families while some of the children went outside to play.  Jonathon spent his time keeping daddy busy running back and forth through out the house we were in.  He did pretty well over all.  Hopefully next month will be warmer so he can also go out and play.

Tuesday evening Kenny had a meeting at school about the Honor Society Trip coming up in May.  Needless to say Jonathon spent the whole 30 minutes talking non stop kinda loud "out loud"  At least the other parents thought he was cute.


He has been getting to bed close to 9p.m. when he use to go to bed at 7:30p.m.  At least he is not grumpy during the day.  Hopefully we can get a handle on this time change soon.


School is going very well for Jonathon.  Teacher says that he is still trying to shove food in his mouth and needs to be reminded to eat just one bite at a time.  I need to figure out how to get a handle on this.  This is a big problem at home too.


Circle Time :  He helped count the number of objects(green trains, boats, and buses) in their counting box.  He was encouraged to put one in at a time while the teacher counted and with minimal prompts he did a great job!


He has to be reminded to stay seated during circle time, but continues to improve each week.


Jonathon had a good day.  The other students look out for him.  They interact more with him than he does with them.  He will look at them and then go back to what he is doing/playing.


Good report from teacher!
