Weekly Therapy Update
Raymond only had one therapy session this week. His physical therapist hurt her back and was unable to make it and his special instruction therapist's kids were sick. He only had speech therapy and did a really great job for Kristen!
"Raymond worked very nicely and hard today. He used "set, go!" with the race track, labeled "car", "up" and "down". Raymond requested "bubbles".
Potato Head - He labeled "nose", "ears" and "mouth".
Doors - He labeled "key" and imitated turn, blue, oh, and house.
Raymond answered "yes" and "all done".

I've also been in contact with some of Raymond's new therapists. They will be coming out to the house to work with Raymond and his current therapists to help with the transition. They are on a break next week and wont really start coming out to shadow until 10/19. I'm looking forward to this new phase for Raymond. I will miss our therapists (so will he) but hope to see much productive change in Raymond with the new ones.
On Monday, I took Raymond and Lily to Longwood Gardens. It was a nice day to walk around!
Yesterday was picture day at school for Isabella. She picked out a shirt with the Eiffel Tower on it to wear. What a surprise! : )
I'm looking forward to seeing how they turnout. I was a little disappointed when Isabella told me she took her hair down for the picture but I'm sure it will still look great!
Also, a lot of you have been emailing me saying you are having trouble leaving comments. Blogger seems to go through phases when the comment system does not work well. I appreciate all the comments and the emails! Thanks everyone!
Until Next Time!

Tim's Place...Revisited
Some of you might remember my post last October about Tim's Place, a restaurant owned by a young man with Down Syndrome. Recently, CBS News ran a brief story about Tim and the restaurant. I thought you might like to see it.
Until Next Time!

31 for 21 Campaign
It's October, which also means, it's Down Syndrome Awareness Month. Like every October, I will be participating in the 31 for 21 Campaign. This campaign's purpose is to raise awareness for Down Syndrome (Trisomy 21) through the world of blogging. Like in past years, I will blog about Down Syndrome related topics and our everyday endeavours. If there is a specific Down Syndrome related topic you would like me to discuss, please feel free to email at ericaburch05@yahoo.com.
Until Next Time!
Lots of Love,
