Help us Raise Money for IDC

Kelsey goes to the Lee Ann Britain center each week, several times a week to go to class with other children and for individual therapies.

It is a great place which Kelsey loves. She kicks her legs in excitement when I stop the car, knowing we are at school.

Kelsey swims, plays in their gym, works with her hands, and works on communicating her needs while there.

We ask for your support in helping Kelsey and other kids like her to meet their full potential.

Counting Our Blessings

This little girl of mine never ceases to amaze me.

Tonight was the first time we got these puzzle pieces out. It was the first time I asked her to do anything like this with numbers.

Where does she pick this stuff up?

I am so proud.

Presume competence

I really liked this blog post and the links within.

It is the theory I have believed in all along with Kelsey. Presume intelligence and figure out a way to help her get her body to cooperate enough to show us/achieve what she wants to do.
