Last Friday I took Hope for preschool registration. Can you believe my little girl is almost old enough to start school? Oh boy, that took my breath away. Anyway...the little stinker decided not to talk. That is really no surprise because she doesn't really talk to many people other than me. She is still receiving speech therapy, but hardly talks to her speech therapist. She will probably be considered special needs because of her medical and speech problems, but I think it will be great for her to be at school with kids her age. She only spends time around her brothers and sometimes her big sister, so I am hoping time with other little girls might help her open up and start talking more often. For the heart moms out there...I am scared of all the potential bugs in school. It scares me that she might get really sick. She has never been hospitalized for anything other than her heart and I don't want that to change. Her brothers have been in school and brought home a lot of bugs...do you think that has helped her immune system enough to let her go to school? Any advice? I will be driving her because the thought of putting her on the bus scares me as much as the bugs she might get.
On the weight front...we will find out on Wednesday. Prayers for a good weight gain are always appreciated.
Yay for two years! I always like meeting another sweet little heart warrior. What a beautiful, brave girl you have. Sending much love and prayers your way, love, Liz.
ReplyDeleteLogan started preschool this year and he has been sick a fair amount but he has really handled it pretty well. Hope might do better than you think with the sick bugs.
ReplyDeleteawesome!! it's hard to believe how quickly the time goes. We, too, are registering for preschools and I can't believe it. We are getting ready for Fontan...wish us luck! (Sofia had a 3 night hospital stay for Glenn. & while we know better than to expect that again, we hope it won't be too long!)
