New School - New Experiences

Well, Hayden started his new school (CAOS) a few days ago. He's been doing really well. In two speech therapy sessions he's cruised through some testing which we're told normally would've taken roughly four hours to complete. He's a really excellent little worker. (it probably helps that he *really* likes his speech therapist)

He's already had some new fun too - making Kool-Aid and he made some art on his 3rd day...a finger paint tree where his forearm (with brown paint) was the trunk and his hand (with green paint) was the tree's canopy. It was really cool!


This is such an enormous difference compared to his old school. The old place was great, but when we confirmed his hearing loss in February/March we needed them to step up to the plate and help with Hayden's development. They didn't and couldn't do that, so we had to make a change.

So far, when we've brought him to the school building he's had nothing but smiles on his face...we even got a WOO HOO when we pulled up to the building on the 2nd day. We couldn't be more thrilled!
