Swimming class Guppy...

Yes...that cat was showing off again....i hear it is on the master swim team....whatever!
Greyson had a good day at school...well as far as I can tell. He doe not disclose much but he does talk a little more than he did last year. I picked him up and dropped off some of those fruit flowers for his EC teacher. She had surgery today so we have been thinking about her and hoping she is doing well. she is a very sweet and wonderful lady and she has been so kind to us in our transition to the new school. After that we headed to our standing OT appointment in Mooresville. he did great there too and I shared his vision therapy paper with his OT. You see alot of these therapies overlap in the things they help and improve upon so I thought why not let them in on some of the things that will help his eyes. Most of what I gave them also helps with coordination, fine motor skills, and upper body strengthening anyway as well as eyes. She was excited to help with it and that will help us out as well. The other eye therapies will be done as often as we can here at home. Although we have so many things going right now we will need to figure out when we are going to try and persuade Greyson to do these crazy exercises for his eyes. That will be interesting in itself. But...back to the story of the night....We went to our last night of "Guppy" class and Greyson has amazed me every class by improving more and more and more. He now swims most of the time without holding his nose. he does the crawl stroke for quite a ways before he stops and flips on his back. just a few weeks ago he wouldn't do that without holding his nose which meant only one hand to swim. yes...he went in circles! anyway...he now will dive into and jump into the pool on his own. He loves staying under water for long periods. I'm sure that is peaceful for him. He floated on his back with another little girl in his class tonight for almost 5 minutes without moving. When he is ready to do something...there is NO stopping him! I think that will always be his way...and that is fine by us. You go big man...you make me and momom so proud! Love you to the whole wide world! as you would say. Goodnight all...thanks for visiting...we love having our friends and family stopping by to learn about us. Hugs! :)
