Goals Again

Lyric's IEP meeting for preschool is scheduled for May 21st.  We were supposed to come up with a list of goals for preschool.  Not small goals either - big ones that are supposed to last for the entire year.  I had no idea what to say.  I asked Travis, and he said he wanted her doing long division, so I decided his opinion didn't count.  I settled on saying that refining her vocabulary and pronunciation was important, and asked for recommendations on other things.  I'm excited to finally get things squared away, but it's kind of intimidating at the same time.  Hopefully that will all clear up after the IEP meeting.

We have one more session with Melissa, and then she is finished with home visits for speech.  We were supposed to have OT with Debbie on Tuesday, but she got there when Lyric was asleep and Travis was in the bathroom.  By the time he got out and saw her, she had packed her things and was driving away.  Oh well.  It wouldn't have been a good session anyway, if Lyric had just woken up.  She's a total grouch when she wakes up most of the time. 

From Tuesday night until Thursday, Lyric was at what we now call Camp Opa.  She went to my dad's house because he was on vacation and I figured he would enjoy seeing her and spending time with her.  To say that Lyric had a blast would be an understatement. Pretty sure my dad had just as much fun, too, if not more.

She didn't want to leave them when the time came, and I'm pretty sure her cousins are her new best friends.  Will definitely have to get her play dates with them more often.  It gives me hope for her socializing in preschool, and possibly for adding a sibling in the next year or so.  We'll see.
