As I have mentioned in previous posts, Paxton is behind in his speech.
Ever since his last set of tubes were put in, he has been hearing great.
His vocabulary has grown tremendously since then, but he is still behind.
We met with the school district so he could be evaluated for speech therapy services.
He qualified for services, and we were told about a twice a
week speech class that was recommended for him.
We enrolled him the following Monday, and now Paxton gets to go to school twice a week!
He goes Tuesdays and Thursdays from 8:00am-10:00am
at the elementary school in our district.
The class is taught by two speech therapists and
consists of story time, arts and crafts, snacks, and playground time.
We are very excited for Paxton to have this opportunity.
He has already gone this week, and he comes home in the best mood.
Waking up that early is not the easiest thing for him though!
We literally live two minutes away from the school so it is very convenient.
I love that he will be able to make new friends,
and that we are getting some help with his communication skills.
It's so cute to walk him up to his class with his little backpack on.
We are so proud of him, and we love our Paxton!
Yay for speech school :)
