WE GOT IN!!!!

A million thank you's and high fives to all of our friends and family that listened to me carry on about the application process for Coopers School. The 0-3 program in our school district is exceptional and very hard to get into because of budget cuts and high demand. After a two hour phone interview and an in person assessment last Tuesday Dusty and I received word today that Cooper was accepted into the program!

I have to attend Coopers IFSP this Friday ( the IEP for 0-3) which will set the goals for development and education over the next year and then Cooper will start class 2 days a week. They are an hour and a half long and my involvement in the class is mandatory. This is as much an education for me as it will be for him! There will be 3 other children , 3 parents, 2 special education teachers, an occupational therapist, speech therapist, physical therapist and school psychologist in his class as well as a myriad of resources available. This process was defiantly not a shoe in for us even with Williams Syndrome and I feel beyond lucky to have the chance to attend. This will set Cooper up for the rest of his education and be the building blocks for our early intervention. Dusty and I are THRILLED!!!

( and p.s. because OT and ST and PT are in the class I can cut down on the doctor appointments we are going to! I know that is not as important but it sure will be nice for Taylor) 

Next week should be Coopers first day of School. Pictures to follow!!!!

This is Taylor's first day of Preschool  She was just over 2 years old. Little Peanut.
