Dear family and friends
Grayson was happy to see us today! He was also surprised and happy that we brought his sister along for a visit. Grayson was particularly pleasant and quite cooperative. He was much more verbal than he has been lately, and he answered lots of questions posed by his sister. We had a nice visit, before Grayson started getting tired and wanted to go to bed around 8:00. It was an encouraging day.
While we will need to wait until our next conference to receive measurable results, it appears that Grayson's working memory is improving a bit. He was able to listen to a paragraph of text then answer questions about it. He is also able to give sequential instructions to accomplish multi-step tasks such as how to decorate a Christmas tree. This too looks encouraging.
It appears that there has been some growth this week. Tomorrow we will spend the day with him (after his regular grocery store run) and we will get a better idea of where we are on our journey.
Pax!

Hi Brant and Regina!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful report! Lauren "lights up the room" when she enters it [just like her mom does!], and it is clear that Grayson responded like a "good big brother".
We hope you have a wonderful weekend together!
In Him,
Doug
PS: It may snow today in Wichita....nuts!
All of the practical things you mention in your blogs are fascinating. Thinking of Grayson grocery shopping, etc..... it's so wonderfully normal and day to day. I'm sure Lauren was thrilled to see the positive changes in her big brother.
