Last night after midnight, Julia came into our bed and instead of finding her pillow and stealing as much of the covers as she can, she announced in the cheeriest of voices, "Hi! I'm here!" Ya' gotta' love that kid.
This morning, she couldn't wait for her first therapist to come but really doesn't want to play with her. It is very interesting to watch this dance. Julia asserting herself to play by herself and the therapist trying to play with her. Julia wants to ignore the timer and doesn't want to go outside.
Tonight, Julia decided that her new book is going to be The Cat in the Hat. I was going to do another shorter book, like Follow Me, Mittens, but she wants another Dr. Suess. We started it tonight, and there are soooo many new words, but she persevered through 9 pages. She knows the first two by heart but saying the right word and pointing to it at the same time is challenging. What she knows is not really the words but the sounds, she can repeat the lines as a whole lump of sounds. Now, she has to break those lumps down into words.
