Alexander with Miss Janis - his Speech Teacher

It seems hard to believe Alexander will be 5 on Monday. He has accomplished so much in the last 5 years! And I as his Mommy have learned so much about Speech and Developmental Delays that I never dreamed I'd learn in such a few short years! We are looking forward to Monday and celebrating a big milestone in his short life. Miss Janis was so wonderful with Alexander at the Scottish Rites Center here in Greenville. I am so glad we had her. At first, she seemed like she was going to be tough but he learned so much from her it, it truly is unbelievable!! She taught him so much and he always listened so attentivately to her and always looked forward to going and "playing with Miss Janis! HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ALEXANDER!!! You are much loved by all of your family.

Alexander & Miss Mary Jane

Alexander with his special friend, Miss Mary Jane. Since Alexander was about 2, he has know Mary Jane and they have become good friends. She is a teacher and appreciates all the improves Alexander has made with Speech and his delays. She is always so excited to see Alexander and he loves her dearly. I wish we could have her for a teacher in Elementary school. Arvin said if she was, he'd never won't to leave school!!

23rd Anniversary

Arv had to work yesterday so we are missing a brother. But here we are on 23rd anniversary!!

Alexander and Mr. Bear

I manage to take this last night. Mr. Bear is a stuffed animal that Alexander has gotten attached to at Grandma's house. So occasionally he likes to bring him home with us. I have even forgotten that we had Mr. Bear here but Alexander obviously hadn't. I'm glad he hasn't been to Grandma's to spend the night because we would have left him here since I had forgotten we had him here! :)
