Working on his next creation

On Memorial Day Mom, Dad, Steve & Nora all came up here and we shared a meal. Burgers on the grill, followed by blueberries, Steve’s homemade ice cream & some homemade chocolate sauce. Mom and Dad brought up a little swimming pool for the kids and we blew up some plastic outdoor toys we had received as gifts last Christmas from Heartspring. They spent the day in and out of the water. It was relaxed and fun.

Yum!

It is the first time I have been to this park, but will not be the last. It is a drive for us, but it is awesome. It is fully fenced in, handicap accessible playground, so it accommodates nearly any playdate we might have.
Zora was SO EXCITED. Not only a great play area, but a lot of her friends from school also made it. She was in heaven. Zane found a whole lot more to enjoy here than he does in typical playgrounds too (and with the fenced in area, I didn’t have to hover to make sure he didn’t leave), so it was truly a win-win for our family. It was really nice to sit and chat with the other moms instead of chasing after kids every moment.

And from one of the other moms…

Zach took Zora to her last day of Preschool. They were planting flowers and decorating the flowerpots for Mother’s Day.
She was very proud of her flowers.
It was a great year, with lots of growth, and I can’t wait until next fall when we can do it all again.
Zora is saying good-bye to the student ST she has had all year, both at preschool and individual therapy. Luckily, it won’t be a total good-bye for me because she will have Zane as a client this summer in a new literacy component we are planning on adding to his schedule.
She has done a fabulous job with Zora this year. I was truly impressed.

We must develop and maintain the capacity to forgive. He who is devoid of the power to forgive is devoid of the power to love. There is some good in the worst of us and some evil in the best of us. When we discover this, we are less prone to hate our enemies.
