Things are somewhat status quo right now. Ella continues to go to school every morning and her teacher reports that she is more alert and letting loose more as she becomes used to the class and the routine. We have a teacher-parent evaluation meeting next Monday at which time we will learn alot more. Finally Ella will be able to start hippotherapy however, the time slot they gave us gives us just enough time to get Ella from swimming at the JCC to the riding stable. She’s been very tired latley so I hope this is going to work out. Beth is in Jamaica for a 4 day weekend. (She won the trip on from a radio station.) I took Ella to swimming yesterday and she didn’t seem that tired when we got home. She even put up a fuss about getting into bed and clearly preferred to play. I did put her down and she slept about an hour. Walking is going well, slow, but she is steady now walking while holding on to one hand. I am very determined to always have her walk that way from place to place — no carryng unless we are in a hurry. The walker is good too but the problem with that is that she doesn’t steer well and always hits the walls and stays there. Independent Walking seems a long way down the road….
