#540 Monday 26 March

Happy birthday Maxine!

The weekend was good .... Kaylia was good company and well behaved.  We had lots of swimming and lots of car trips ... so she was happy!  While driving we usually have her music playing and she is getting even better at singing along   Yesterday she was saying something ... it sounded like 'beach' but we weren't going there .... then we realised she was saying 'beep, beep' and she wanted the previous song repeated! ("horn goes beep, beep")  In general we are noticing a real improvement in her speech .... largely because she has realised that she can negotiate for things that she wants.  She is trying hard to say the words correctly.  She listens to the sounds and tries hard to get it right.

We had a midday family birthday on Sunday.  The last time we had one was August last year and we had to bail out after about 10 minutes because she had a bad melt-down.  Yesterday?  She was great and we were able to stay for 2 hours!  What a difference the new medication system makes.
