Mother's Day

I had a really nice Mother's Day. Jim let me sleep in, then helped make breakfast. Jesse & Ciarra and I made cinnamon rolls together, then Jim and I baked some cookies. The guys went out and did some major yardwork, I caught up on some laundry. Then we had friends come over, Rob & Wendy, their son Hunter (4) and daughter Andrea (20) and her new baby Aislynn. It is busy when we are all here together. The guys went 4 wheeling and then BBQd when they got back. Wendy and I played around with pictures and blogs Ciarra and Hunter played and laughed all afternoon, and Andrea and baby Aislynn tried to overcome a crying jag lol. Poor baby seems not to feel well, and is already cutting teeth! Jesse is the Baby Whisperer, the kid LOVES babies! We had a nice dinner, BBQ ribs, burgers, dogs, steak, stuffing, veggies, chips...and chocolate cream pie (which I didnt TOUCH thank you very much)
It was a really nice day. Unfortunately Kristin wasnt here for much of it. Her friend mackenzie flew in from Kent State in the afternoon, and Kristin and some friends drove down to pick her up. She bought me some beautiful flowers and a balloon, though. :) And Jim bought me a beautiful ring to replace my engagement ring I lost...so pretty. It was a really fun and happy Mother's Day.

Hi there!

Yes, I am still doing speech therapy! I haven't worked with many children with Down Syndrome, but I'm happy to try to answer questions for you. I have a friend who works primarily with children with Down Syndrome and would be happy to ask her for you too.

Happy belated Mother's Day!
