I had a meeting with the school dept today, at the school that Emmie will be attending. I was so nervous but it was all in vain because it went FABULOUS! I got the feeling that everyone has Em's best intentions in mind and hopefully her whole transition will go as smoothly as today. Everything was explained to me in a casual and friendly manner. The school dept's OT, ST, and PT, will try to hook up with her EI therapists and observe Miss Em. They will evaluate her, do their testing and what not, then we will meet up in September for the "TRANSITION" Em will be in a classroom with typical kids and other kids with special needs. I think that is going to work best for her. I'm actually getting a little excited for her. I know she will love it.
As the meeting was coming to an end, I was asked if I wanted to add anything. And for some reason this image came to mind.
Nope... nothing to add. I'm good.
Oh Miss Em they have no idea what's headed their way!
And just if your wondering, we normally don't eat from the floor. "Someone" was eating in the living room and left their dish unattended for a millisecond. Miss Em having quite a taste for ketchup swooped in to lick the dish clean. It tastes so much better that way!

Glad her conference went so well. I have one for the girls in the morning. They will all soar I am sure of it. I thought Em had spent a little too much time with the cat. LOL
I still can't believe Em and Lindsey are old enough to be starting preschool in the fall. Where does time go?
She'll do well because you are so involved. You never want her to become a "file." All the best, Liz
I'm so glad it all went so well! Sometimes, when we are most dreading it, it comes back to surprise us and change our entire outlook. They go from being the perceived villains to the ones we're excited to work with. Not sure if it stays that way, but at least it's a good way to start out...LOL
LOVE the photo! Omg, that child is hilarious!
I thought every child eats this way! I know mine do..it is fun to watch them explore the imaginations! Yeah for a positive start to the new school year! and that you all have a plan is awesome! smiles
I agree with Liz. She'll do exceptionally well as long as you keep your eye on everything. So glad it all went well. I can't wait to see what Miss Em will accomplish...she's already accomplished so much. Hugs
Too cute!
