Good News Minute!
I got a call from Gabe's pre-school teacher yesterday and got the best news. At school they have been doing a lot of testing to determine what the next school year will bring. The test results came back and he tested right in the middle as an average 4 year old for his cognitive skills. He will start Kindergarten this fall in a mainstream class room with only special help with his speech and motor skills.
What a blessing, our prayers were answered. Gabe has caught up with his age group after all of the doctors years ago said he never would.
Gabe has been in Therapy since his was 10 months old with kids on the move until he was 3, then Special Ed. Pre-school through the school district for 2 years now. The special help is not over yet but many thanks goes out to all of the teachers and therapists that have worked with my sweet Gabey. It is fun to see him learning and coming home doing and saying things I know I didn't teach him. Lately Jace has been in the "Why?" stage. It has worn off on Gabe and there is a question about everything. I appreciate it so much because it took so long to be able to talk with him rather than to him. Tonight when we were reading the scriptures he asked me "Where is heaven?" What a sweet boy!
