#675 Sunday 8 September

It's been a good night.  Kaylia put herself to bed downstairs again.  This has now happened several times .... a good sign!  When she does this I still do the "wee run" .... she goes to sleep again afterward .... and comes upstairs a couple of hours later.  

We seem to be doing a slow transition from co-sleeping to her own room .... at her own pace.  This way there will be no trauma for her ( in the process ) .... and the resulting behaviour should be natural to her.

At the big office......

This is one for all the Trekkies ....

Language..... one of the battles we have is to encourage Kaylia to use language for social purposes rather than just to ask for what she needs.  A little while ago she came to me with a big smile .... she was holding the clothes she will need tomorrow.  "School!" she says.  I interpret this as a clear social use of language .... she's sharing that she is going to school and that she's happy about it.   High 5!!
