Saturday night in Sioux City. Both girls are tucked into their beds. We head to Iowa City this week for Grace's annual appointments there. We'll meet with Dr. Mathews, who is her neurologist and the one who the specialist with SMA. We'll also meet with Dr. Starner, who is her respiratory specialist. Lastly, we'll meet with a new doctor (Dr. Dietz) who will deal with her spine issues--she'll eventually get curvature and scoliosis. Hopefully it'll be a good trip, always good to get down their to see the docs.
We had Grace's annual IEP meeting and her parent-teacher conference this week. Both went really well. The people at Nodland have really taken to Grace, and they do a great job taking care of her. We talked about how things will go in first grade, and they also told us they're going to put a special swing in their playground just for her. Great news there. She's doing very well in school. She's reading at an end of first grade/start of second grade level, and she also really enjoys the math they do. Still, however, she maintains that her favorite class is art.
Finally, much to my chagrin, Grace refuses to watch the NCAA Tournament with me. She told me the other day that she hates basketball unless it's a Briar Cliff game. I guess I can live with that.
