Jessie, I had Collin's doctor aske me the same thing last year but only it was reference to me wanting him to learn to read and write because the school was giving me fits with his placement. But he asked as a friend and Christian....he just wanted to know if I would be able to accept Collin as he was/is if he never learned to do these things. My response was YES but I'm not willing to give up yet!!! After thinking about this question only you would be able to answer if is was asking for a mean spirited reason or out of concern for both you and Jason. Connie

CC- Funny how the smallest things we take for granite with typical children but when our little ones with DS do it, it is such a JOY!!! We also have issues with width and height!!!! Connie

Dolly, I know Collin and Eric are basically the same age but Collin does not have the diagnosis of Aprexia so I don't think his goal would be appropriate for Eric. With Collin we are working on begining and ending sounds. Putting 2-3, 3-4 words together etc.... Collin just really started talking when school got out. I know that a lot of people disagree with me but I don't put Collin in a summer program because I feel he needs a break like all the other kids and during this time I really see a lot of progess in him. LIke the other day, I was getting him out of the van hand he kept telling me "Back, Back" I told him no he was to heavy and he yelled at me "NO, Daddy Back" and sure enough my husband had gotten home and there sat his Durango. This is something new for him and has taken him longer to get to than I would like but he did get it and so will Eric! Connie

Lisa, Your kids are so beautiful but I have to ask....did you post that right? Your daughter will be "3" in October ? She looks so big/tall. My little one that turned 3 in March doesn't look near that big. Connie

Man-o-man.... I know I am the moderator but you are asking me to burn what few brain cell I have after a long day at work....LOL. The peppers....go a long way back and can start quit a ruckus here since a few members have lost theirs before.... But, the peppers (if the site is still using them) are like a reward for the number of posts you post. As for the stars...humm I'm not sure what they mean but will look into it. The information on the bottom. I will see if I can figure out how to change it and email you for your information. Connie

Stacy, Welcome!! Seems most everyone is posting here on the bulletin board. Here you can find things listed in sections. Each sectionis divided into topic or threads. Not sure I can be much more help than that. The message board is still used but not like it used to be. If, you can be more specific maybe I can help a little more. Oh, I'm mommy to Griffin 9, Gray 7, Collin 5 (chromosomally enhanced) and Lauren 3 and last but not least wife to Michael
