But yeah, hugely different from two and a half years ago!<br /><br />RAS - He's definitely come a long way. Trust me, the therapists have their agendas of what they want to get done with who on what day and when... and one way or the other, they're going to get their minutes in :)Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07803503583347758969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5494655959430218526.post-80490732995350001862009-04-27T12:15:00.000-05:002009-04-27T12:15:00.000-05:00Awww, good for him!

I agree with you about the two points - and I think it would seem the therapist might have more of a social issue when she's going around interupting kid's reading time. That's just rude.Ryan Ashley Scotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13515371602427605756noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5494655959430218526.post-52885120420311394562009-04-27T07:13:00.000-05:002009-04-27T07:13:00.000-05:00It's always nice when committees of people have to...It's always nice when committees of people have to "look" for issues. :)<br /><br />Yay Mister Man!Melisa Wellshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14252498482861679154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5494655959430218526.post-47342247767850469532009-04-25T19:19:00.000-05:002009-04-25T19:19:00.000-05:00Kori - I'm with you.

And I'm cool with him having minutes and an IEP "just in case" he regresses on anything, but with his academics, I feel like they're trying to use this against him.<br /><br />septembermom - Oh, it's his favorite activity.
