Preston's Speech

Preston finally had his appoinment with the Developmental Therapist on Wednesday. He was really excited to meet Barb. I think he may have liked her because she brought a bag full of toys! Barb sat down and asked us 101 questions about Preston's Development. Then she proceeded to do several tests. It was really neat to see how Preston did! He is such a smart little boy. He rated above average on his development. Actually we needed him to a little less to get the recomendation for a speech therapist to come! He was a percentage point away from where they would recommend a speech therapist, but they are allowing him to be a part of the program, YES!
I hope the speech therapist calls soon so we can make our first appointment with her. Preston should be saying a lot more than he is and this therapy should help. Preston is trying to say a little more everyday, but we are still behind. This program should provide some great benefits for our little guy. I am hoping that it even gets him into school earlier. I just think that the kids who start before kindergarden are that much more ahead. Keep your fingers crossed! I'll keep everyonr posted on how he is doing!
