This will be a long post....

It's been so long since we've updated Andrew's blog. It's been a LONG winter and we're finally able to see the brown grass that's been underneath all that snow. You still see snow piles everywhere, but it is really starting to feel like spring... except when the forcast for this weekend calls for snow showers!!

So we had Andrew's Kindergarten prescreening and they were impressed by Andrew's intelect and had no concerns at all with him starting Kindergarten in the fall.

We just had his CPSE (Childhood Preschool Special Education) meeting on Monday and it went VERY well. He will still receive all of his services over the summe excluding Sp. Ed and 1:1 aide. we were surprised that they planned to do his CSE meeting for public school at the same time and were totally unprepared but luckily it went very well and we all agreed without any dispute about what services we were requesting for the fall. We are so glad that he will be able to go to the school that we want him to and we are so glad that they gave him all the services he needs without any issues!

He also had an eye exam since his Speech Therapist has observed some minor vision problems with his functional vision. We've also noticed his eyes going all different directions too but when we asked the ped. he told us it was nothing to worry about and he'd outgrow it. Unfortunately he did not out grow it and will be wearing glasses now! He looks so handsome in them and he enjoys wearing them. Yesterday he wore them to school all day without any problems. He likes to take them off when he eats because they get steamed up and he is afraid that he will break them. We try to explain that they are hard to break but just be careful with them is all.

We also wanted to update everyone about the March for Babies that will be taking place April 27. Anyone who would like to donate and sponsor our team, click on the link on the right of the top of the page. We are not even close to our goal this year and need to keep moving so that Andrew can get his Plaque this year! He will be sad if he doesn't. Weve gotten one every year since we started.

Thanks for checking out his blog and we invite you to take a look at our www.youtube.com/thefavilles we've uploaded some videos for you all to enjoy!

I would love to hear about your emotions throughout the SDR process-pointblank experience. We are currently making the decision for our son Brendan to have SDR. He is 6 years old with SQCP. thank you
