“My favorite part about being Wesley’s mom is probably just being able to rediscover how awesome everything is. To him, wishers are awesome, rocks are awesome, fascinating… so just to stop and rediscover what the world looks like. I think sometimes as adults we forget to slow down. Forget that there’s simplicity in life.” -Wendy
Miss Evie and her family have been utilizing our Help Me Grow program because she needs a little extra help. She meets with a physical therapist and a speech therapist every other week to help her learn and develop as best she can. Her Physical Therapist helps her with building muscles and are helping her stand without support and using a walker to assist her in learning to walk on her own. She is able to pull up to various furniture and is beginning to cruise sideways along couches. Because of her decreased muscle tone, these gross motor activities are more challenging for her and take more effort. She can independently maneuver a walker and stand up in it with support only at her hands.
Her Speech Therapist is helping Evie learn to interact with others and she is starting to do back and forth play. She is jabbering but not yet saying words. Evie is making choices with gestures. She is learning how to feed herself with more mature grasp patterns for her hands and also in using a spoon. She is also working on drinking from a straw.
