Day #236

Josie is most definitely a mellower child when she returns from preschool. Even though she has been having a yelling-to-decompress fit when she first gets home, but she settles down once she relieves some stress from the day.

Maeve had OT this morning, where she was very much like a tornado. Whirling about from one spot to the next, unable to sit still long enough to get any fine motor work accomplished. The walk home afterward calmed her down a bit, but I noticed a lot more hand flapping today then during previous appointments.

I want to share my Prep. for College Comp. discussion board post for this week:

Success is the favorable or prosperous termination of attempts or endeavors. Plainly, it is the accomplishment or happy outcome of trials and tribulations. Successes come in all shapes and sizes depending on who attains the victory. It can be as large as pulling through a lifesaving operation; or, as small as scoring the last piece of cake. Being a mother, I have gone beyond searching for the relevance of my achievements, and pride myself more in the successes of my daughters. Seeing the world through their eyes, even the tiniest hurdle cleared in growth is a tremendous party worthy success. They try so hard, tripping so often, but still get back up doing it again unscathed. Success is not only the attainment of things, positions or outcomes; it is also a state of mind. Success can and will be achieved when you have a positive, motivated mindset; but will never be achieved if you fail to try.
