    Default one proud mama!

    just gotta brag a little here.

    my 8 yr old is just finishing up school and we had the awards ceremony today.

    but first, i want to say how proud i am with how far he's come in school this year. He is partially deaf, he wears hearing aids and gets along great with them. but because we didn't catch it till he was 3 yrs old, it's messed up his speech and understanding a little (which affects reading). he is in speech therapy and doing great! he speaks like all 8 yr olds (he's staying in speech to keep him from going backwards). But this has in turn affected his reading.

    at the beginning of this school year, he was barely reading at a mid level kindergardener. well, just in the last 3 months he has gone to reading at his 2nd grade level and is getting better everyday! YEAH!!!

    He's WAY to smart in math and whizzes through science.

    but his true forte is sports.

    sooo, back to the awards ceremony.

    he BROKE almost all of the 2nd grade school records this year!

    50m dash, 100m dash, 200m, 400m and came in second on the mile..but only cause his shoe fell off! lol no one in the school has ever done that!

    just wanted to say to everyone how proud i am of him!

    Awesome! Reading and writing fall under the duties of a speech language pathologist as well. Has his therapist helped him in those areas? It's certainly within his/her scope of practice.
