Speech Therapy Session

Peanut has the most wonderful speech therapist and she has been using prompt therapy to help him. We video taped todays session so that she could share it with her boss at her speech clinic and get some help/advice on what to focus on with him next. Last night Peanut said "Backhoe" and "Ladder Truck" when reading his truck book with Papa Bear which was music to our ears. My favorite thing that he says now is "love you" and when he tells us his version of a knock knock joke. He is an amazing little boy and we are so very proud of his progress. I thought I would share his video here in case people are interested in what prompt therapy looks like for Peanut. Disclaimer: this is a 12 minute video and only shows 12 minutes of his 1 hour session. There is a lot to it and sometimes he is cooperative and happy about it and other times he just has had enough.

This is a link to his speech therapy video. Enjoy!

Papa Bear (and me)

My partner in crime and most gentle soul around. Papa Bear is all that is kind and considerate and puts his family’s needs before his own. As most Papa Bears, he does not multi task well but is working on it. He is dedicated to quality in all of his projects, little or small – especially where his yard and house are concerned. He is the creative, artistic one in the family who can draw chalk animals with life-like reality in just minutes and cut out dinosaurs and bugs free hand with one hand tied behind his back and blindfolded. He is the kid chasing, dirt digging, worm finding, ball throwing, world’s best Papa Bear.

Mama Bear

I am a mom of three young kids who thrives on teaching my children to love life. I tend to over organize and can’t exist without a schedule but my kids are breaking me of both of those habits. I can re-create any craft or meal I see, but am not usually creative enough to come up with them on my own so I have no shame in stealing all of my good ideas from other moms with experience. I am learning every day how to be a good mother and wife and have the best teachers in the world, my family.
