Our Smallest Wonder Child
It's been nearly three years of tests, observations, therapy, and intervention for Delaney the preemie. It all came to a head yesterday at a meeting with what seemed like every child care and education specialist in our valley. Because Delaney is turning three, it was time for a re-evaluation because she no longer will be a part of Part C (the program that has been watching her since we got home from the NICU). Thus, we have been doing lots of evaluations and tests over the past month to determine whether or not she qualifies for Part B / Special Ed. It wasn't really a surprise to us (but is now quantified) that she is not only on track, but actually exceeds her age level in most developmental categories. This means that she does not qualify for special ed as we consider enrolling her in a more full-time preschool. Despite our interest in having her under the microscope for the foreseeable future, this news and confirmation of her well being is cause for major celebration. Delaney is truly a wonder child and we are so fortunate. Thank you to everyone that has helped shape her mind, body, and personality. Happy Holidays.
