Great Two Weeks!!!

Madison was home with me last week. My day started at 4:30 am and I was done with work by 1 pm. She played, watched TV and looked at books. She was so good. We only had a few meltdowns. She would bring books in and sit by me while I worked. She had speech therapy on Thursday and still did not connect with the speech therapist. But, Julie gave us plenty of exercises to do with Madison to improve the poor muscle tone in her face.

This week she went to Bettys. And she LOVES it. We thought it would take at least a week for Madison to get comfortable, but it didnt even take a day. She was a little clingy to Daddy the first morning, but after that she goes in, raise her arms for Betty to pick her up and pretty much is done with Dad. She has a great time there. No meltdowns!! On Thursdays I am home with her and she does physical and speech therapy. Madisons physical therapist is a guy named Dan. It took her all of about 2 minutes to acclimate to him. She allowed him to work with her leg muscles and get a plan of action for her treatment. Madison has always preferred men. She loves her Daddy, Brother and Grandpa. She loves the women in her life too. But, this little girl loves having the men in her life wrapped around her little finger.

This is the best decision we could have made. Madison is improving and advancing daily. With her therapy and the Love she gets from Betty when we are not there, Madison will be back on track before we know it.
