Testing our video uploading skills

OK, not sure exactly what is going on here. Kids are dancing and I think both have their own little routine going on. I think Madeleine may need a few more rehearsals before she picks up the routine. Glad to see I have sussed out how to upload videos now...I know it's taken me some time.

Homai trip in Auckland

Molly and I just returned from a very successful trip up to Homai School in Auckland where she and I met lots of really interesting therapists and Molly was put through the grill once again. I should add that it wasn't too stressful for Molly, who actually thoroughly enjoyed the three days of one-on-one attention. Molly was out to impress and that's exactly what she did. The last visit up to Homai was two years ago so the therapists were amazed at how much progress Molly had made, especially how comfortable she now is in her body and the speech therapist said she had the language skills of a six and a half year-old! We are obviously very proud parents and just delighted to see her reaching her goals. Go Molly!

Just a few photos for now as one of the therapists was taking lots of photos while we were there and will be sending us some soon. Molly will soon have her very own blog which is currently being created by her Visual Resource Teacher as part of a wider project that she is involved in with the Foundation of the Blind.
