She got kicked out a few days later.
It's hard to believe how far she's come.
She’s gone from
wild child with all day meltdowns
sensory everything
sign language
picture exchange communication systems
having to “practice” doing every day things like going to the store
countless hours of Speech & OT
dressing in baggy clothes because she couldn’t handle the fabric touching her
liking to hide behind hair in her face, and couldn’t handle it being brushed
has grown into the most well behaved kid we know. She is happy, cheerful, and her smile can light up a room.
She does all the things we feared she wouldn't - TALKS non-stop, plays ball, gymnastics, loves getting her hair done, is obsessed with headbands and big bows, and demands to wear a dress everyday.
All the tears shed, hard-work, and painful prayers were worth it.
She did it!
Tomorrow, she starts Kindergarten in a regular class - just like all the “normal” kids.
We will never be able to repay all the guardian angels along the way, who’ve helped her get this far. This kid is a walking miracle and we are beyond blessed to call her ours.
