Oh man! She's too little for that JZ!
Illyria: Wesley's dead. I'm feeling grief for him. I can't seem to control it. I wish to do more violence. Spike: Well, wishes just happen to be horses today.

I just finished my Pride & Prejudice reread yesterday and today. I was going to do Sense & Sensibility first, but the copy I got was all ferwonky. And anyway, now I have to do Don Quixote before my library copy expires.
Oh, surely not, JZ! She's adorable.
My friends just had their first baby. She had an early miscarriage and then a stillbirth, so this is their third attempt and everybody is healthy. With all the death around, I'm glad to see the birth and youth.

Eee.
Kat, in comparing Noah's and Tyler's speech, I'm a BIG FAN of the language therapy N got. I think T needs it. His ear issues mean his speech is...well, not delayed, he's got a huge vocab, but he's really hard to understand. Cereal is yoeh-yoh. Which kinda makes sense to me if he was hearing through a cloud of fluid. (Dominic was Nomnic.) But not right for a 4 year old. He gets really frustrated with me one on one- Dominic can translate (as I'm sure his parents can.) SIL is trying to get him into therapy, and I know my mom wants me to video his speech to get a consult from her speech pathologist at work.

Yeah. We are blessed that Noah had Speech but also that he has a good ear. He's a marvelous mimic and he doesn't really mind being corrected. Well, mostly. I cannot get him to stop saying VALLERINA instead of Ballerina. Drives me batty.
It's hard to get services for kids past 3. Early intervention is federally-funded but after 3 it is school district. So, SIL should try calling the local district and requesting an assessment for speech.
I think my file migration is complete.

She also has access via LaPetite, so... Big problem was that the &*@#@! previous pede kept just dismissing it and prescribing more anti-bs. No, he needed tubes. Badly.

Yes, access is part of it, but T will be entering the school system within 18 months, and an IEP is a legal document, transportable to other districts. So it's also the bigger longer term look -- yes, services needed now, but also what services in the future. It takes at least 3 months to get an IEP you can start with and we are still working on trying to get the IEP we want a year later.

And this is Alabama. Tyler will be starting kinder in 2012, too.

My mom until she retired last year was a speech pathologist with a school system, and that was one of the things she did--work with/evaluate kids too young to be in school yet but who maybe needed help.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Teppy, I'll keep you posted on the potential for Cinci. The fact that Cincinnati Roller Girls are there (plus, you know, YOU) is a great plus.
Lola ate my laptop keyboard earlier today. It's very inconvenient for me to replace it. But I'm pricing them anyway.
msbelle, that guy is smoking crack.
